I'm hoping mine will climb up and cover the deck stairs' railing...I guess I won't think about if the stairs need repairing or anything!<BR/><BR/>Ruth, maybe you know it by its proper name, Sanguinaria canadensis? It's rather sweet looking, I think, but not especially long lasting.<BR/><BR/>Gotta Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05858358103234856020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22571073.post-59915023343959267082007-04-01T14:00:00.000-04:002007-04-01T14:00:00.000-04:00Thank you for that tour around, I enjoyed it very ...Thank you for that tour around, I enjoyed it very much and would like to have a trip there myself. It is a bit too far away though.<BR/>For my northern german eyes quite unsusal plant mixtures/companions: small palm trees amongst helleborus.
