Border Gardening

"Border Gardening" is intended to represent the Buffalo Horticulture ideals as a "Design and Build Landscape Construction and Garden Care Service". It is soft, or hopes to be, and writes with a voice for those in search of value(s) in and from the landscape.

The "Hot and Cold" List of Buffalo Horticulture 2016

Picture

​​The "Hot and Cold" list began back just before Gardenwalk at the end of July. I think its inspiration was the Purple Cone Flower which was beginning to bloom - EVERYWHERE. Yet, Caitlin and I had just taken a ride out to the greenhouses and were in love with all the "fun and new" Echinacea - although, still not fun enough to make the hot list.
​This list that follows has no intention of making some objective representation of what is actually trending in the market right now. This is purely a subjective list of what has been capturing my attention and repelling me.

​I would totally love some dialogue on this. (Insert Happy Face Emoji)

​You will need to look these up on your own if you don't know them. See it as an exercise.

Curious about your repulsion to Amelanchier! Do you feel it's being overused?

Sarah - this is worth a post in itself. Thank you.
If you don't see me put out a post in response to this by the end of the weekend - call me, email me, hunt me down to bug and remind me...
For me, it would be beautiful to write about.
:)

Thank you for looking and commenting.
