I LOVE ladies' mantle, and use it for an edger or groundcover in my gardens. It was rated the #1 most effective groundcover in a study at Cornell, because of the dense mat it forms.
No matter which article I click on I get Shade Trees for a Patio. Would love to reread the others like a Room with a View or Plants for Dry Shade.
Love this! Beautiful setting for these great statues.
What a terrific use of the sculpture. I'm curious if it's by Katy McFadden whose work I love. Photos of her garden would be a treat for FG readers.
oldsquaw--those links should be fixed now. Sorry about that!
Absolutely delightful. Not a big fan of sculpture in the garden but that tickled my fancy. Thanks for the smile.
A perfect position for lady's mantle... gorgeous.
