The Best of 2014 Garden

Agastache 'Bolero' (Anise Hyssops)
Planted in a large pot on east facing
patio.
Blooms mid-summer for over a month!
Spectacular!
Likes full sun in moist well-drained soil.



















Sutera cordata 'Snowstorm Blue' Bacopa
Great annual with delicate blooms.








Philodendron scandens 'Brazil'
Photo did not capture the tiny white
flecks in the heart-shaped leaves.
They just say "happy" to me...
Receiving about one hour of direct
early morning sun on our east-facing
covered porch.





The plants are all perennials in our
Zone 5 garden. Heuchera 'Marvelous
Marble', Lamium maculatum 'Pink
Pewter' and Lamiastrum galeobdolon
with their silver-green foliage; pop
as a center piece under our east-
facing porch. Most likely will plant
in the garden this fall.
















Heuchera 'Fire Chief' does not have to be blooming
to be a standout. The foliage is spectacular. My kind
of plant. Again a perennial I will later plant in the
ground this fall.












Diascia hybrid 'Flirtation Orange'
is a great annual to fill-in splashes
of color.













Angelonia angustifolia ' Angel Face Blue'
Love the foliage; deep green, glossy and
blooms the best...













Nemesia fruiticans 'Opan Innocence'
The color is just like opals! Love this
annual. Need to have an enourmous
budget for annuals!
