- Spring Anemone Steals the Show
Plant Anemone canadensis when you want to carpet a large area. Too vigorous for a small spot in a border. Here it works to echo the shape of the long narrow walk as it directs your attention to the garden below with its beckoning color and texture.
Meanwhile, I’m challenged to dead-head the garden. The bearded iris have gone by and need a quick snip. Finally, managed to find the time to buy summer annuals for the containers and I’m flumuxed by violent thunder showers. As I watch the weather report, I’m not the only gardener flumuxed by the weather. So I will enjoy the views out my windows–the New Dawn Rose- budding and opening on the trellis designed to screen my neighbor’s house–delights me. When it’s safe to venture outside, I’ll snap a photo. Meanwhile, the birds sing.
