| Thanks for posting these here, Frank. What a fabulous garden. Steve |

| Wow oh wow oh wow! Yes, that is just what I have in mind for MY yard! Chances of achieving it? Pretty slim. Thanks for the wonderful pictures. I would love to be able to go there someday, but it is more than a day trip, alas. |

| Jim, in the third picture, all those BLACK hosta... what are they? Very lovely gardens entirely, with those black plants near the entrance, gets your attention right away. |

| I'm Frank. That is Big Daddy. You can see it on the right side behind the stump in the fourth picture as well. I am not sure of the one on the left. I couldn't see the plant marker for it in any of the pics. It is probably Big Mama. Those two big blues are actually behind their mini beds up next to the check out building. Liberty is to the right of the mini bed at the back corner of that building. Why they would put it back there away from the main beds in the gulley is beyond me. They even planted Band of Gold right next to Liberty which I think is a bit silly since they look similar in variegation. |

| Beautiful gardens,Frank! Looks like they must have a crew that spends every day pulling weeds,because I don't see a one! I could do that here,if I had unlimited funds and a younger person than myself to do it! Lol! Phil in NC |
