Text of the page (random words):
knows the rest of the garden is looking especially nice this year mostly due to the rain that we have had it s not enough to say the drought is over but my garden is certainly basking in the bit of extra percipitation posted by sheila at 11 00 am 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels drought tolerant perennials spring veggies monday april 4 2016 signs of life it has been a lovely spring for surprises in the gardens plants that were sleeping for months if not years have suddenly been replenished with the rain this winter and i understand more is in the forecast one example is this variegated acanthus i thought i had lost you either love acanthus or not so much but they are survivors in dry shade and a rich dark green classical leaf and most of the time and i kind of love them i planted this about a year ago and it faded fast in the dry summer but looks revitatlized now let s see how it fares this summer ajuga is one of my favorite groundcovers with lovely purple blooms low to the ground most of it disappeared over the past year but i m counting on this little patch that has hung on to grow again and refill the path edges posted by sheila at 7 26 am 3 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels groundcovers shade plants thursday march 24 2016 white blooms spring is a lovely time of year in the moonlight garden with so many white blooming plants in addition to the variations of green foliage everything kind of sparkles and yes those are blue blooms on the rosemary but i am obviously not a perfectionist the rice flower shrub blooms for months and is kind of huge it definitely makes a statement and makes up for the bare spot nearby where a white flowered blue hybiscus died suddenly for no apparent reason last year left a large empy space i do have to replenish the annuals and small perennials in this area a few times a year due to the hungry bunny population that considers this a smorgasbord the white camellias and azaleas are just starting to wrap up their bloom season cistus or rock rose is a reliable california native that i should remember to plant more of in the near future i am so happy that the ornamental grasses are coming back after their seasonal cut back that leaves them looking less than lovely for a few months they add movement to the garden that can easily get too stiff it is important to me that there is a lot of visual interest scents sounds and textures in my gardens and i think this garden covers all those requirements quite nicely this time of year posted by sheila at 9 35 am 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels moonlight garden perennials san juan capistrano spring sunday march 20 2016 preparing for easter clivia easter is a big day in the gardens we have been having an easter egg hunt for as long as i ve had a garden to hide eggs in and one of my favorite things is watching the gardens filled with kids hunting over under and around all the beautiful plants throughout the years there are typically anywhere from five to ten little ones doing the hunting and the older kids do the hiding it started in my laguna gardens and then moved to the back yard in sjc and now we do it in the moonlight garden where the adults can see the fun from the seating area indian hawthorn because easter is early this year the gardens will be in their spring peak i m hoping the scents of flowers is heady and the early spring blooms are really prolific this year wisteria i m hoping the climbing roses and wisteria hang on for another week although they have been blooming for weeks already heliotrope one of the most fragrant plants in the moonlight garden is the white heliotrope i planted a number of plants years ago and they just thrive and bloom all year round they are rather easy to overlook until you catch a whiff of the cherry pie scent azalea the camellias and azaleas are almost done with their show but the roses starting to open so it will definitely be a lovely day for everyone evelyn rose posted by sheila at 10 41 am 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels moonlight garden perennials scented plants spring vines saturday march 19 2016 sun and shade here is another view of the white climbing roses from the last post showing just how beautiful and full they are during march facing the early morning sun i don t even think they get fertilized i have been struggling with trying to fill in this bed under the fast growing california peppers trees the trees prefer not too much water or they get root rot so shade and dry loving perennials were my only choices there is some late day sun that creeps into one side of the bed in the afternoon which evidently is enough to sustain the purple lantana the tagetes lemmonii and an easter basket rose bush the plants facing the other way have to be shade lovers or like the daylilies from years ago that linger there they may hang on but never bloom my garden helper does not really pay any attention to sun and shade requirements and propagates plants all the time and puts them in where ever they are needed like these margarete daisies they need full sun but seem to be blooming like crazy in this dappled shade years ago this bed was filled with beautiful calla lilies that i thought disappeared during the last few dry years but it looks like they are making an appearance again after staying on the low down until the rains came back what do i know posted by sheila at 10 10 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels roses shade plants spring trees wednesday march 16 2016 spring awakenings green agave with this rain we ve been having has also come some crazy weather a couple weeks ago he actually had hail thunder and lightening an event that takes place rarely around here it has happened once before while we have lived in sjc with the same results damage to the green agaves in the form of pits it will take a few years for it to completely disappear rice flower i have forgotten how many wonderful spring blooming shrubs i have like this rice flower plant in the moonlight garden i have to confess that i have been to a number of nurseries in the past few weeks and have left with nothing in my car i am feeling a bit overwhelmed at what needs to be added or replaced in the gardens i finally decided i have to get busy before i am too crazy busy with other projects in my life to focus on the gardens so i did load up the car last week with a few basics that i can always tuck in somewhere milkweed milkweed is a must to keep the monarch butterflies happy they struggle through after being decimated by the caterpillars every year but a few more never hurts right now the scents from the gardens at sunset are amazing and this combination of pink jasmine and indian hawthorn are partly responsible along with the citrus blooms makes me giddy the white roses rosa spinosissima and wisteria are waking up in the front driveway i was afraid the hail would ruin the blooms but there were enough new ones opening up that they took it all without missing a beat even though the roses only bloom for about one month out of the year i couldn t ask for a more prolific rose with no disease or bug problems the wisteria here is about a month behind the wisteria in laguna probably due to different micro climates because they are the same hybrid posted by sheila at 8 25 am no comments email
