Love your in ground agaves & am looking forward to hearing how they do over the winter. Mine are mostly still in pots as I'm afraid to trust them in the cold wet ground.outlawgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273973572989510382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428399855033732471.post-24731821088917243802012-09-16T22:28:47.723-07:002012-09-16T22:28:47.723-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.outlawgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273973572989510382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428399855033732471.post-58876594706697458912012-09-16T22:10:49.217-07:002012-09-16T22:10:49.217-07:00Perfect foliage follow up post Louis, you captured...Perfect foliage follow up post Louis, you captured summer in everyone of those pictures.

But my new goal is to soften things up with some really good companion plantings. Agastache is one I have in mind for next spring. What do you think? <br /><br />I think you are right about the B in BC and Cascadian horticultural happiness! it's grand :)Louishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06219272603726629982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428399855033732471.post-15390586078471056512012-09-16T18:53:25.518-07:002012-09-16T18:53:25.518-07:00Thank you! coming from you that is a huge complime...Thank you! coming from you that is a huge compliment because I always ohhh and ahhh over all your great foliage and textures.

But I think it is even more special with the variety of forms and foliage you have...my favorite thing about Cascadia is the turn-on of the culture to horticulture. You all really go for it...and I might add from my one visit to Vancouver BC, is that B in BC has some influence in that, I can only guess!<br /><br />I guess the words of what you show to me are vibrant and evolving (or progressing).
