Thrives in all soils and spreads rapidly! The old adage goes that if you can't grow Blue Plumbago, it's time to move to the city! And that's really no exaggeration -- this perennial is quick to spread and puts up with a lot of abuse, from dry soil to neglect. With a constitution like that, you'd expect it to look rather weedy and tough, yet it is as dainty as a violet and as bushy as a Vinca! The original late-bloomer, Plumbago makes a belated appearance in spring, after most of the garden is well underway. Quickly meandering over rocks and across troublesome bare spots, it begins blooming in late summer, just as the rest of the flower garden is calling it quits. The peacock-blue flowers are flattish and held wide open, just 3/4-inch across yet very prominent against the small, bright green leaves. As the weather cools, the foliage turns a rich mahogany, enhancing this plant's appeal. Only 8 to 12 inches high, it forms mats 12 to 18 inches across. Plumbago is superb for ground cover,...

I have devised a method for staking and tying up perennial plants that works like a charm. The plants stand up tall, do not bunch up and fall over in one direction after a heavy rain storm, and completely hide the stakes holding them up. For most perennial plants you need 5 stakes. These should be sturdy bamboo or cedar. The stakes should be the same length as the ultimate height of the plant. Push the stakes well into the soil, evenly spaced around the plant, slightly leaning away from the plant. They should end up to be 6-8" below the ultimate height of the plant. [Hint: Place the mouse over each photo for a description] Use a good sturdy twine. I recommend "Knotty" Garden Twine as it is very strong, of a dark colour (so won’t show), is easy to knot and re-tie and lasts for years. * Tie the twine to the first stake about a foot from the ground. * Go around the circle of stakes looping the twine around each stake as you go. * When you reach the first stake again, then go to every...
