Foliage: The Living Palette - Part 3
As we dream of our gardens and what we want to do, we need to keep our aesthetic tools in mind. Foliage is one of the primary tools available to those of us who garden in shade. With it, we can weave a living tapestry. I've finally gotten a scanner and I've been playing with it. One of these days, I'll figure out the best way to use it. In the meantime, please bear with me if my page is slow to load.

Vines - Part 5 - Ivy
A lot of plants are called "ivy", but only those belonging to the genus Hedera are really ivy. Most of us know ivy as a rather rampant and somewhat boring evergreen ground or building cover, but once you discover the shapes, forms and colors of ivy, be warned, it can become addictive. As a vine for shade, it is unsurpassed. I have lots of photos for you, so the page may be slow to load.
