It a nice, low, full plant with pretty little purple flowers from spring through fall. It's my substitute for lavender since that doesn't do well here. :)<br /><br />xoox laurie Heaven's Walkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16632739764562279850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4328753701456343931.post-43068842802024084622012-09-26T15:44:47.865-04:002012-09-26T15:44:47.865-04:00It's going to look fabulous, Erin!

I love how the beds are nice and wide so you'll have plenty of space to let things grow big.<br /><br />I second making sure you get some spring flowering bulbs in. They truly are amazing come spring when your craving a little something pretty. I sure hope your planting some shrub roses. I stayed away from roses for a long time since I've always be told they are more more and picky. But then I bought my first shrub rose and was HOOKED. Now all I want are shrub roses, hydrangea's, zinnia and coreopsis.Robin Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10560952419735450648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4328753701456343931.post-9117531740933815042012-09-26T13:58:44.275-04:002012-09-26T13:58:44.275-04:00We must be thinking alike.

We stuck bulbs around the perrenial plants so we'd have flowers in the Spring. We also have had lots of luck with herbs planted in the flower bed.
