Photo/Illustration: Sharon Nyenhuis
With Michelle still recovering, I’ll do a guest turn today and offer up the August image from the 2012 Fine Gardening Wall Calendar. This landscape, designed by Sharon Nyenhuis for a garden in Port Angeles, Washington, evokes both the fullness of late summer and the cool, mysterious mists of early autumn. Mounds of ‘Autumn Joy’ sedum anchor the composition.

Beautiful photo, I only hope my Autumn Joy will look as nice. Michelle get well soon! We are sending good thoughts your way.
A perfect picture for the first day of August....interesting how the height of summer lushness hints at the approaching of fall.
Wonderful groupings, now if only my borders would one day grow to be as beautiful!
I looked thru the other photos with the plants' identity shown but is the above photo not available with the plant name also? I like the green fuzzy things just above the sedum, to the right. And the burgandy spike to the left of the sedum and also again further to the top of the photo. I can't tell if the plant to the right is also the same.
And Yes, Michelle, get well soon! We Miss You....and your photos!
Even though we're foliage gals, we love that Sedum 'Autumn Joy' as it looks great through spring and summer before bloom. The green plays so well with the pinks and purples of the flowers. And a great bonus of 'Autumn Joy' is that in our mild climate, the flower heads dry on the stalks and the birds spend the entire winter sitting atop them, pulling out seeds.
trashywoman - that fuzzy green could be fennel.
A lovely scene, thx.
Michelle get better soon!
I like those purple-lilac bottle brush spikes, they look like gaylord? Hurry up and get well, Michelle!
