Wonderful to hear from a fellow Alaskan! Yes, it’s disheartening when a plant doesn’t come back. Most of the time, you never really know what happened. I’ve had certain ones that failed one winter, that had been star performers for years! The ones in the article are some of the toughest once they get established. While at the greenhouse or garden center, you can look up a plant on your phone to get more info than what’s on the plant tag…which is often pretty generic. Hope it’s a wonderful summer of gardening for you!
]]>Awe…thank you so much. I’m glad you enjoyed the photos. That’s why I take them, after all…to share with folks like you! I could photo flowers all day and not get bored. I’m glad you also appreciate the rich intricate details one seldom sees without a close up. ~ Kristen

]]>How wonderful to meet another wildflower lover and someone who knew and appreciated Verna! I always give credit where credit is due and I’ve learned so much from her books (though I never met her personally). Wanted to share her book with others all over the world who might run across this post. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment, you made my day!
