Re: Howard’s Spring Container Displays
Your container garden designs are fabulous, so refreshing to see- so natural and not overly full of too many different colors...such a nice use of twigs in the long rectangular planter, and love those hydrangea/pansy/pussy willow arrangements!

Re: GPOD on the Road: Canadian Wildflowers
I didn't know Campanula rotundifolia grew in the wild, very beautiful. The non-natives are also pretty and seems like there is enough room for all to live and be used by pollinators. Could not imagine killing flowers just because they didn't originate in this country.

Re: Gail’s Garden on the Side of a Mountain
What a challenge and you still managed to make a pretty garden. Love the slope with the flowers and love the foxgloves.

Re: Not Only Violets Are Blue: Part 1
Thanks for info on "Stinzenplanten"! So interesting to learn the Dutch have a name for that! So nice to see your Iowa garden (I used to live in Manly Iowa)/ I love the photo with your Chocolate Chip Ajuga and the houses in the background! Such a pretty garden!

Re: Charlie’s Wonderful Wyoming Garden
Wow, your garden is a flower paradise! And your Lupins are amazing! And the white birch bark as a background for all those colorful flowers is a nice design touch!

Re: A Guest in Rhonda’s Garden
Your garden is very well designed, it has everything a garden needs. I also appreciate your choice of single petal peonies, I love the way they hold their flower heads up so well. The fox is gorgeous, although I feel sorry for the rabbits...but that's nature, and it can be cruel. All the same your garden looks so serene and peaceful, I really like it
