I'm expecting Lin to come soon. She's not chosen the best of days to come weatherwise. We've had plenty of rain the last few days. She'll certainly realise how waterlogged we get. She was hoping to have a good look around the whole garden, but I suspect she won't get to the far end. Too wet. Fortunately you can see the bog garden from the house & there's only the crazy paving of the patio area for her to cross.
At the moment we're contemplating a mixture of tall hydrangeas, ligularias, some dogwood for a bit of winter colour & some globeflowers for a bit of bright colour in the foreground.
We've been going around with eyes peeled looking for bog plants in other people's gardens. When we popped over to see MK & Helen on Tuesday, we saw a big patch of ligularias. It was very impressive with its sculptural leaves & tall yellow & chocolate spikes.
Still we'll see what Lin suggests. I'm looking forward to it.
