Filling the garden with blooms

My name is Linda Gelinas and I live in Orange , Massachusetts . I have been retire for about 10 years and have been garden for about 35 year . I have about 25 recurrent gardens on about an acre of land . I am definitely an amateur gardener . What I have get wind about gardening is from reading and just evidently experimenting with a variety of plants . I have a small greenhouse and plant perennials and annuals to trade in front of my home . I also separate my perennial each class for resale .

This picture is of my side and back garden . I grow slews of coneflower(Echinacea ) , daylilies(Hemerocallis ) , black - eyed Susan(Rudbeckia ) , zinnia , and sedum . In the middle of the garden is a blush wine of Sharon(Hibiscussyriacus , Zone 5–8 ) .

This is a position of my backyard with my countrified shed in the background and great deal ofhostasand black - eyed Susan in the foreground . This garden ismostly shade .

This planter is in my side grand and has lots of subtlety . I fill up it with coleus(Solenostemonscutellarioides , annual ) , impatiens(Impatienswalleriana , annual),begonias , andVincamajor‘Variegata ’ ( Zone 7–10 or as annual ) .
