SO beautiful! So many of the same things :) Altho your have some gorgeous colors that we reallllly want! That kniphofia (the yellow one) is really pretty. I have it at the cemetery garden, but not in our personal one.
Yes, this dwarf variety of Joe Pye Weed will die back in the frost. I had mine in a container for the first year and it stayed relatively short, but now that it has been in the ground for 2 years, it is so happy! It has outgrown the predicted height by almost 2.5 ft. This perennial has a hollow stem that insects like to overwinter in so if you can leave it up, they will appreciate it. Or at least cut the stalks and leave them in a neat pile somewhere in the garden until Spring cleanup time. It will tolerate wet soil too.
Oh my goodness, such beautiful flower gardens!
Thank you! They bring me so much joy 😊

Thank you! I'm certain you will find a way to acquire the yellow kniphofia 😉
You have a lovely garden.
Thank you!
Where did you find your rocks for your steppingstones? Everything looks so beautiful.
I can't remember exactly where I got the stepping stones. It was from a local rock and mulch place.
I just discovered Joe pye weed. It's in a pot. Does it die off ? Do you cut it back? It looks beautiful in your beautiful garden. Thank you!
