I lost my photo card from Annie's--yes, I know, bad, bad--and I couldn't remember the name of that short-lived perennial. I think it needs to live here somehow. Your photos show the garden as much softer than it felt. I love that they did this for their son and the rest of the community. Loved the grasses, but ornamental grasses are such wonderful plants anyway. Those structural succulents were cool too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2861157226256566848.post-39083383723709151472013-07-28T06:09:53.136-07:002013-07-28T06:09:53.136-07:00Wow! this garden really excites me, thanks for a b...Wow! this garden really excites me, thanks for a brilliant post that made me feel like I was there with you.
