We have been having a pretty good season for growing perennials, grasses and roses. Here are some examples of what we are growing here on the yard.
Walker's low finished very fast this year and is already on the gravel ready to go. It is such a nice, low growing plant that can cover a large area with profuse purple flowers all summer.
This is one of our production houses. (Actually this picture was taken a couple of weeks ago) Filled with daylilies, Black-eyed Susan, Catmint, Yarrow, Sedum and Salvia. Most everything in this house has finished and is ready for planting.
Two miles down the road we have a production and holding yard called Ranchito. We plant roses and grasses at this location. The combiation of heat and sun really makes them shoot up and look beautiful.
Little Blue Stem was one of the first of the grasses to root and finish and it filled out so quick. It has a very upright habit with colorful foliage that turns orange red in fall. It is a prairie plant that does well in our hot dry summers.
Karl Foerster Feather Reed grass always blows me away. It was up and blooming before anything else was even starting to root. The flowers are such a pretty, soft pink and turn to light brown for the entire summer and fall.
She said yes and now it's time for a map
