It’s a repeat performance of a ‘knock your socks off’ plant for this cloudy Friday. So if you happen to sneak into a garden center this weekend, check out last year’s post on Kniphofia, A.K.A. ‘Red Hot Poker’ and add this stunner perennial to your garden. http://blog.bilowzassociates.com/2010/06/lets-rock-and-plant_22.html Another big plus about Kniphofia – it attracts hummingbirds.
And by the way, I’m still rocking with those drum sticks. Thanks to my newfound instructor, Alex, Thursday nights are going to rock! So on that note, I’m ending this holiday week with an inspirational music quote by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. “The pleasure we obtain from music comes from counting, but counting unconsciously. Music is nothing but unconscious arithmetic.” And like planting in your garden, it’s all about timing!
