» misalo - Welcome to my Flower Gardens! :)

Thank you for your reply! I have my garden mostly planted, just need to find a few more things to balance out the colors. I gave up on finding natives that would work because - amazingly - natives are extremely hard to find here. You'd think they'd be among the easiest, being "native", but no - most nurseries around here carry 80-90% exotics. It's very frustrating.

Anyway, in my "cottage garden" so far I have lavender, snapdragon, butterfly plant, pentas, two kinds of mint, blue salvia, gayfeather, lantana and one Lamb's Ear. I have a couple other plants, but can't remember the name (they have pale orange & pink flower spikes and smell like lemon mint). I just need to find a few more small-med plants for the front of the bed. Hoping to find a sprawling flower in white or pink. Any ideas?

Thanks again.

Michelle
