Summer Gardening

     In our area, we do not have a very long growing season.  We also have experienced a drought the past two seasons.  So I have had to water my gardens, and also plan then so that I am using drought tolerant plants in full sun.  I have planted many Goldstrum Rudbeckia.  I planted Campanula carpatica ' Blue Clips'.  Some long blooming summer sun perennials are Coreopsis lanceolata 'Sternthaler', Magnus Purple Coneflower,Goblin Blanket Flower(Gallardia x grandflora 'Goblin'. and East Friesland Salvia.  I have many Stokesia laevis 'Blue Danube" and common garden phlox, Phlox paniculata.  I have many clumps of moonbeam coreopsis also. 

If you'd like a mind at peace,
A heart that cannot harden,
Find a door that opens wide
  Upon a lovely garden.
