I have been completely smitten by my garden and admire all efforts to create a little piece of Eden in other garden spaces. It truly has a positive impact on people .. even if it is only for a few moments at a time. My little garden is in zone 5b but most gardeners experiment with plants that may just make it from a higher zone .. a micro-climate can some times cushion a tender plant. I am a plant 'collector" I have more of a plant zoo than a designed garden. : )

The first time I got a whif ? of a buddliea I was floored .. truly ! .. it is the most amazing scent in the world to me .. a mixture of honey and spices .. I have two in the back garden .. and I learned an important lesson .. they take quite a while to "show" they are alive in the Spring .. I dug out "Black Knight" thinking it had curled up it's toes and left the building .... BIG SIGH of regret and lesson LEARNED !
