» CarolWallace - Re: My bias

In response to message posted by Gay_Klok:
I have to confess to being biased against a few perfewctly goodplants just because they are overused - although I suspect that they are overused because they are such good, hardy plants. Impatiens is one - and also the red salvia. I'm beginning to develop a hatred for the big, tall bearded iris,too - but mainly because they seem to constantly be in need of division and so are pretty labor-intensive.

And I get so tired of going to the nurseries for interesting annuals only to see the same array - petunias, pansies, red salvia, impatiens, geraniums of the peralgonium type and dusty miller. There's nothing really wrong with them but there are so many other great annuals around - I yearn for a bit of variety.
