The Happy Hen
Attractive To Bees
Hello everybody! Looks like I have not been on here in a while. Well, I revamped my profile page and photo a bit in hopes to revive my activity. Over here at the Knickerbocker Barn things have been really busy. Albeit hopefully now that the necessities are out of the way (country life's unpredictable though) I have some time for doing what I love. Flower gardening. Now this isn't only for my wishes, it's for the beloved pollinators and birds I most enjoy including the Gold Finches with their love of sunflowers. I have three pots with different flowers in them and two flower beds against the foundation full of thyme and Black-Eyed Susan's and such. Two pots for experimenting and one I have long grown. In hopes to set up a small rock raised flower bed to add on to my collection, I need some ideas. Perennials have more pros than annuals... but I'm starting to change that theory. My best of luck last year was with annuals (Maine patterns I tell ya). Which should I use for this rock garden? I really want to grow Inpatients because my Grandmother, so my Dad told me, absolutely loved them. But they're annual. What are YOUR opinions? Thank you so much!
