Even with a trio of garden dwarfs on guard
a gardener can’t get away from a bully.
Read the garden bully on Frankie’s Blog!

A garden without flowers is like
a day without a glorious sunray.

Frankie talks about Canada’s
Perennial plant of the year 2016
Anemone xhybrida
common name “Japanese anemone aka
windflower, Honorine Jobert”.

Don’t overwater this beauty; their
delicate feet don’t like to be wet!

Between you and me…

Anemone xhybrida so white and bright
gave me a little fright.

If the planting conditions are right
this “windflower” will sway gracefully
but may become a garden bully.

Should the planting area lack the
required conditions this garden beauty
will not sway but wither away.

However,

Every gardener likes  a challenge.

Try it… You may like it!
