Superstar Petunia with Lavender Rose Calliope Geraniums
A visit to Northwind Perennial Farm in Wisconsin displayed an unforgiving winter with many plants damaged or lost. However, a gardener's life goes on and there is much planting to do repairing a wondrous garden.

The phlox is massive this year and only Blue Paradise is blooming right now (it is the first and last to bloom). I am not really sure what all of these varieties are that have filled out so much, I wait with much anticipation.
More than one variety of phlox together
The lilies are just beginning with my only Asiatic the first to bloom.

I ordered some of my container plants from Park's this year, already in combinations and sent as plugs. They have all done great! I have just about given up on pre-planted containers (only one this year as a gift).
