I've never had any luck with them, unfortunately.<br />About what to plant on our new pergola... I thought wisteria - but I have chickens that eat everything and the seed pods are poisonous. So, maybe Trumpet vine? - but it'll tear the paint off the house... Jordon hates roses, so climbing roses won't work(how sad!) So, now I'm thinking grapes... until I find the negative to that as well, I guess! :-PNathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15987068526094555577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629369488026897469.post-54236834837864797532009-06-03T13:54:26.085-07:002009-06-03T13:54:26.085-07:00beautiful flowersbeautiful flowersgeoshttp://www.geosyntheticsworld.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629369488026897469.post-82909970794895336232009-06-03T05:01:26.263-07:002009-06-03T05:01:26.263-07:00Everything looks so wonderful-I love them all-but ...Everything looks so wonderful-I love them all-but am particularly fond of your Lupine.

I love it. Glad you are feeling better and can get out in the garden a bit. You have some beautiful blooms out there that are sure to cheer you up. I have some pink & red lupine but just found plants of that gorgeous blue this spring. I'm really glad I bought them now that I've seen your photo.
