Nancy, I just realized that I don’t have enough gold in my gardens. Out comes my wish list. Your photos are so inspiring.

Thanks, Cathy. I too think I don’t have enough gold in the garden. I have my first-of-the-season Lancaster County plant-shopping trip planned for this coming week, and I hope to find lots of exciting new foliage additions!

Loving the yellow and totally “getting” your part about blogging when you are too tired to move. There seem to be more of those hours in each day, with each passing year. At least the blogging quenches my contstant thirst for “more” about gardening when my back is failing me!
Great to see and read your ideas.
Thanks!

I hear you, Carol. As much as I’m enjoying being outdoors, I’m almost wishing for some rainy weather so I can catch up on some indoor work.

Hi again Nan, Oh… I do love this series of posts. I too love golden foliage plants. They just lift an area don’t they? I used to have golden hop growing over my arch and it looked great especially with early morning sun. I have moved it to my jungle border where it can just ramble as it wants to – almost :-D

Have a great weekend :-D

Oh my, Shirl – the ideal of letting golden hops “ramble as it wants to” (even almost) is pretty scary, considering its incredibly enthusiastic nature! I’m still trying to keep it on a rather small arbor, even though I really ought to know better.
