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. : )
My Japanese Painted ferns are doing very well this year .. the colours in the "leaf" and stems are beautiful if you take the time to really have a good look .. which I did yesterday .. sometimes you can get too caught up in the very showy ? flowering plants and miss out on the quieter ones.
