I haven’t had luck in NJ. Your garden is gorgeous.

Thanks for visiting, Roberta! No, sadly, none of the coreopsis in the Limerock series have been hardy in my part of PA either (for me, at least).

The Coreopsis with the Merlot lettuce is particularly pretty.
Sitting and relaxing aren’t on my agenda either :) Isn’t summer flying by?
I’m so glad you got some good rain. We’ve been lucky here this year, and the field corn is looking fabulous!
Plenty of storms though, causing us electrical problems (expensive electical problems!) and after they were fixed this past Wednesday my computer wouldn’t work. Major frustration! Ross (hubby) is generously sharing his with me. Thank heavens! :)

But is that a japanese barberry I see in the background? Time to get rid of this invader!!!

That’s Berberis x ottawensis ‘Superba’, nini. I promise that I’m *very* aware of the invasive potential of Japanese barberry, and yes, I’m gradually removing all of them from the garden.
