I hadn't intended...Thanks for visiting, Bonnie! I hadn't intended to have a woodland garden, but after 20 years of additional growth, the trees (and their shade) sort of decided my path for me! Late winter and spring brought N Georgia far more rain than normal, but all the spring bloomers seemed to have thrived with it. I'm sorry to hear about your dogwoods - I love to see mine bloom. Several years ago, though, we lost one that the arborist believed to be about 75 years old. It was the largest, fullest one I had ever seen.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13351617444186870485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6991718686765766708.post-38394553107919441022018-06-08T07:50:36.920-04:002018-06-08T07:50:36.920-04:00I'm coming over from Poofing the Pillows and h...I'm coming over from Poofing the Pillows and have enjoyed my stroll through your spring gardens. I have a woodland garden similar to yours. Our azaleas did well this year and many attribute it to sustained days of cold in the winter. I am in south Alabama. <br />I lost all my dogwoods to anthracnose which has affected our entire area. The forestry department confirmed it is everywhere. For many years I sprayed them but they continued to have die back and I finally had to cut all of mine down. It was sad and I have missed the beautiful blooms.<br />Thanks again for the garden tour.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09559612002837383953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6991718686765766708.post-75777974905289973262018-06-05T11:33:56.119-04:002018-06-05T11:33:56.119-04:00Wow!

Azaleas seem to define the South - their colors explode everywhere, and some re-bloom in the fall. But I had to give up lilacs and the perennials that struggle in heat.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13351617444186870485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6991718686765766708.post-13425754739216969082018-06-05T11:30:55.955-04:002018-06-05T11:30:55.955-04:00Thank you.
