Welcome to Perennial Passion
About Me
- Diana LaMarre
- Michigan, United States
- I am so glad you stopped by to visit my garden. I garden in lower northern Michigan (zone 5) in far less than ideal conditions. I have too many pine trees, too much shade, too many rocks, herds of hosta-munching deer and rabbits who think my lilly buds are gourmet appetizers. I am by no means an expert in horticulture or garden design--just an amateur with a shovel and a passion. My garden changes daily during the summer and I will be updating frequently. During the winter months, I blog about my favorite cold-weather hobby--quilting and just my everyday musings. I hope you enjoy your visit, and that you will come back soon.

Those Canna Lilies are gorgeous...the leaves are just as amazing as the bloom. Great shot.

Thanks, tc. Yes, I like the foliage even more than the flowers. I was happy to find the plant last year and hope I can get some others with maybe green/white striped foliage. Next year I will probably divide this one to get more of them.
