Hi! Its me again and this time I have some ideas that might work for the
side of the yard that gets 100% sun from noon on until the sun sets. I
was going through a magazine and saw SEVERAL ideas sooooo here is a
list of things that would work and ONLY ideas. I don't know if you have
any of these seeds or not but if you do they would be perfect!!!!
It is a lengthy list but then it gives you lots of things to look for.
Hope you have most of them! I'm not sending them in any special order of
preference just a list. Mostly the ones on top but if you don[t have the
seeds... then just anything would be very much appreciated!
** Pink Mist Scabiosa--------butterflies, hummingbirds, fragrant
S. columbaria 'Pink Mist'
** Gay Butterfly Mixture-----butterflies, hummingbirds
Asclepias tuberosa
Foxtail Lily-------------good for behind shorter plants (backdrop)
Eremurus x isabellinus
Pink Dragonflower---------showy for borders
Physostegia virginiana
** Raspberry Sundae----------border, hedge, hear entry way
Paeonia lactiflora 'Raspberry Sundae'
Moonbeam Coreopsis

chickens and hens
Bowl of Beauty Peony------wonderfully fragrant-property line area

+++++This will give you an idea of what I'm after -MAYBE-
loads of color, smell, attracting butterflies and hummingbirds.
Please post me back what you have so I can plan the yard set up. Then I
will be done for a couple of years. I need a break and only maintain
yard once set up the way I'd like it. These would finish off that I'd
like---adding to what you sent me already. About ready for seeds from my
plants and send to you for the files so you can send to others. Thanks
again for sending me the seeds from before! They are doing beautifully!!
Perhaps if you don't have access to some of these someone else
reading this might be able to help out?? In return I can help them out
somehow !!
