croco- people need to feel that they have a purpose, yes. that and they need to know that they are relevant. speaking of which, your white garden info is most relevant. thanks muchly. i'll do some research to see which of those can survive gale force winds for most of the year and which we are experiencing today. just got back from a walk on the wild side - on the beach. WOW! - very exhilarating. almost as good as .... i was going to say sex, but thought better of it <vbg> -rose

Goat's Beard -- not sure of what that is, but it might be an astilbe -- maybe Mannie knows. Aruncus dioicus? dungevalley.co.uk Nice plant, I like it. It gets a huge stock on it...great background plant for a perrenial border. Nice selections for your white garden. If you want to add a grassy texture to the mix, there are some very nice variegated carex out there, they are evergreen, also....and very hardy. This variegated willow (salix) is great too: hoffmannurseryinc.com On Sturday I went out to Vashon Island to visit a client and place a couple of large plants into a garden we fished building in June......the growth since then was just spectacular, I was blown away. I took a few pics, I'll post them later in the week.
