Lots of pretty flowers you are finding. Very pretty. You are going to have lots of fun getting it all the way you want it.

I am at that.  I am just thrilled with my finds.  Some of the plants and trees are ones I have always dreamed of having like the clematis, hydrangea, and Japanese maple.  Oh I have a cherry tree too and I think a lilac tree.  Just found those ones tonight but it is too dark to get good pics.

I love a cherry tree in bloom.  I do not love the mess the blooms leave when they fall. But it's worth the show it puts on.

I missed the blooming part which is why I did not know it was a cherry until the fruit started growing.

i'm loving all of your flowers.  If I end up with any other extra bulbs I'll make sure and send them on to you.

First post, 2nd picture is carpet phlox? I think that is what it is called.

2nd post, 2nd picture is allium I believe.

Thanks, I really like both of those and will keep them in mind.  Does the phlox look like a mound?  Kinda like a compact ground cover or does it get tall and leggy at all?

It does not get tall and leggy.  I would say that it is 6 - 8 inches high.  It is more of a compact ground cover.  I like it.  I have another ground cover but I don't know what it is called.  I will take a picture of it and maybe somebody here can tell us.  Are you looking for ground covers?
