Walking through the garden…I couldn’t help but notice some understated, unassuming plants that I just love!
Nashika Willow:
Nashika Willow enjoys part sun/part shade…it has an interesting and airy branch structure. It’s white and green variegated leaves add a pop of color and it has small blooms in spring…
Lady’s mantle…is a low growing perennial. It fills in nicely to create a sort of ground cover or border feature. She’s my kind of lady because she prefers a little sunshine…
And no shade garden is complete without the stately Solomon’s seal…(on the left) It grows tall and proud and it’s white variegated leaves provide a beacon of light for the dark shade garden. It’s dainty blooms are just delightful…
None of these plants are as showy and fragrant as the lilacs about to burst into bloom…but they have a quiet well-deserved place in the garden…beyond May :)
