I think it was a good idea to reinforce with those corner beams as my fruit frame, (lovingly made by my husband) collapsed in very strong wind for the lack of them tensioning the whole, allowing the wind to 'twist' the structure. Your garden ornaments look so drawable, can I book my sketching holiday now? And yes, I too have drooled over these architectural antiques expensively rusting away in some yard off a byway in deepest France, only to be told they want megaeuros for me to take them off their hands. Darn!

I was interested to see Susan's comments about the catmints - I've got several plants of both 6 Hills Giant and Walker's Low planted from last year. It will be interesting to see how they compare as they mature this coming season. I keep reading the Walker's Low is less likely than other catmints to split down the middle. But 6 Hills Giant has larger flowers (I think?!) and so might be nice for me to have for arrangements. I'll post pictures of my nepetas if you post pictures of yours, um, does that sound kind of funny to you, too?

Your plan is lovely and professinal - love that you included the scale.<BR/><BR/>I think your plant choice is great. My only suggestions would be to consider 'Rozanne' instead of 'Johnson's Blue' and 'Walker's Low' instead of 'Six Hills Giant'. They look almost identiical, and despite the name, the Walker's Low will often get 3' tall just like the Six Hills, but I've switched to these two cultivars over time as I find them to be longer blooming and tougher varieties. <BR/><BR/>I've never tried the Stipa and in fact had to look it up to see a photo. Looks a lot like a Pennisetum (Fountain Grass), one of my favorite grasses, so thanks for teaching me something new. <BR/><BR/>Will we get a photographic "work in progress" diary?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-357865578794109155.post-89719308171437858242009-02-16T17:29:00.000+01:002009-02-16T17:29:00.000+01:00Love the look, what a beauty that is going to be....Love the look, what a beauty that is going to be.
