Beautiful shady tub @Carol Dee !

I'm pulling out a bunch of Lily of the valley, looking for something with late season color.
It's been several years since I've grown them, can't remember, do they hold up well into Fall til the frost takes them out?

YES, the y do well right up until frost. It may take some time to get them up from bulbs. Maybe someone will have some on clearance potted already.

Good to know.
I'm pulling the Lily of the valley now because it's easier to do when it's starting to get ugly. But was thinking of planting some there next Spring.

Now I have to get brave enough to stop avoiding the Spring bulb racks. Self control, set limits, I wish I could just find them in my car. :lol:

I tell ya, it's worse than the fabric store for me.
And if you saw my fabric stash you would know just how horrible a thought that is! :hide

My sister worked in a fabric store, and if you don't think that was bad.....she is to fabric what I am to plants.
@Lavender2 , I don't even want to imagine you after attending a spring sale at the nursery and the fabric store! Haha! I bet your daily driver is a truck!
