I have been trimming mine back like you mentioned on my blog. I didn't realize how big it can get. :) I am learning that about a lot of plants....Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07572136733330325375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-40440302230925858352009-11-06T20:58:19.146-08:002009-11-06T20:58:19.146-08:00I truely love your pavers with the plants growing ...I truely love your pavers with the plants growing around them. If you get a chance, look up Geranium Pacifica. Another late bloomer, it goes so well with any hardscaping. Not a true geranium, it has blue/grey leaves on top and silvery white underneath with sprawling stems. It's yellow and blooms about now. Not that you need any more yellow but I think you would like it.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08820151806039495564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-37593805663432019682009-11-06T14:53:50.982-08:002009-11-06T14:53:50.982-08:00Yes,clean-up is hard (the boiling water interestin...Yes,clean-up is hard (the boiling water interesting) but you have such a delightful area to clean up in. It all looks beautiful. The lemon and Mex. mint marigold totally enchanting together.LindaCTGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10177442713100751193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-37777846132343876442009-11-06T09:02:55.597-08:002009-11-06T09:02:55.597-08:00Morning glories- I also have some which are not in...Morning glories- I also have some which are not in full sun and they bloom later. I also like a clean up too and looking for other things popping up.<br />Sweet bay-I know pyracantha is invasive but i just love this look through the winter and it brings the cedar waxwings in.Rock rose https://www.blogger.com/profile/00348711150803587369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-29523652884550904402009-11-06T08:18:44.488-08:002009-11-06T08:18:44.488-08:00Your courtyard is so beautiful.

I have decided I like the fragrance, which for some reason reminds me of my great grandmother. <br /><br />You are ruthless in your cleaning, which I think is necessary. I am always glad when I am able to clean up the garden and start with a clean slate.

They love this weather too. Mexican marigold is such an easy plant and likes to grow everywhere it drops a seed. Don't be buying any as I'm sure they will appear at our next plant swap.Rock rose https://www.blogger.com/profile/00348711150803587369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-57912030915948080792009-11-06T04:35:39.170-08:002009-11-06T04:35:39.170-08:00wow, this is a really nice little courtyard you...wow, this is a really nice little courtyard you've got here. i bet there is a flurry of activity from bees and butterfly this time of year. i love the copper canyon daisies. i've been meaning to look into those as an addition. i'd also like a lot more lantana as well as the mexican mint marigold. too much! too little time!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-80297840515857565092009-11-05T21:33:47.267-08:002009-11-05T21:33:47.267-08:00Glad to see the pup is growing well and has some n...Glad to see the pup is growing well and has some nice purple spotting going on as well.
