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.

Is that Globe Thistle amongst the lilies?
ReplyDeleteGood eye,Sabine! It is indeed.
ReplyDeleteI only have one plant. I hope it reproduces this year. It was on my Wish List since I saw it in a magazine. Mine was heavily infested with black aphids this year and I had to keep after them.
