New Jersey Gardening

Need help in northern NJ

16 years ago

I have an addiction...I have so many plants and I don't know what to do with them all. I have a nice garden with a small pond in the center and buy new plants thinking they'd be a great addition but I never figure out exactly where to plant them. Those one still in pots all over, I still buy more and more. Is there anyone near Hewitt NJ that has a good eye for garden arangement that could help me out? I'd be glad to give divisions of what I have for in exchange for some help. No manual labor just Ideas PLEASE....

Oh that sounds like fun but I'm too far away. ;(

Maybe you could post a plant list and a sketch or some photos?

The deer have mostly cured me of your problem. Now I only buy what I'm reasonably sure they won't devour, and what there is a specific place for.

I've taken to propagating what thrives here - sizeable sweeps and drifts and multiples of healthy plants make for a better-looking, more coherent garden.
