  1. I reverse my subscription after being asked half a dozen times in this video to subscribe. annoying

  2. I’m in West Virginia, zone 6 I believe. I’m going to purchase astilbe, Japanese painter ferns, coneflowers, blackeyed susans, coral bells and ornamental grass

  3. The detail on rose campion blew me away — I had no idea poor, dry soil was actually the secret to getting those flowers. I've been amending everything out of habit and probably working against half my garden. The evening primrose tip about watching the flowers open at dusk is exactly the kind of thing I would have never thought to do on my own. Putting purple coneflower in first this May. Already have a neglected corner that sounds perfect for it.
