I can’t resist another day of Jane Horn’s garden in Prior Lake, Minnesota. Her plant combos are so great! Here’s a portion of her garden along a shady path. Jane’s plant IDs are in the captions. Enjoy!

Yes, those plant combos are outstanding. The proportions of the pathway to the plantings seems ideal. I felt like I was standing on one of the paver stones and soaking it all in.
Fantastic array with great appeal, draws the eye to look everywhere. I really like the inobtrusive plastic edging; low maintenence, cuts way down on invasive roots, and presents a much cleaner demarcation than a jumble of fieldstone. I have one question, what is the purpose of those chains hanging from that tree limb, I hope they are not damaging the bark.
Beautiful design - your eye starts at the front and wanders back. I also like knowing what the names of the plants are.
Jane, you make us all dream of spring! Using the coleus and croton houseplants adds that great splash of color. The pathway draws your eye right down the path to the hammock. Such beautiful textures!
What a luscious garden! I love the serene feel and the way the pavers draw your eye towards the next section of paradise.
How wonderful ~ that you are blessed with mature woods edge as the backdrop to you gorgeous gardens. You have played off the pine blue-greens and incorporated many colors & textures. Bravo Jane!
I'm sitting here looking and dreaming of things to come. I know I can't duplicate what you've done, but you've certainly given me big ideas. I can't wait until Spring. Thank you.
I'm standing with you, Meander1.
