We featured Jan Meissner ’s Avon , Ohio , garden last spring ( here , here , & here ) . She ’s back again this twelvemonth with this selection of photos that are having her hungriness for bound ( we know how she feels , right-hand ? ) .
Jan says of the first photo,“I thought you might like this blue / black / pinkish combo . bleak mondo grass ( Ophiopogon planiscapus‘Nigrescens ’ , USDA Hardiness Zones 6 - 11 ) is so slow to sprout new leaves here in zone 6a , but just about the time I ’m quick to supervene upon it , it save itself . ”

Jan included a few more snapshot from around her garden , but had this to say about the gorgeous chartreuse chair:“While I was in my coloring combo mode last year , I painted a $ 12 chair in a bright greenness to fit hostas ‘ Spritzer ’ and ‘ Guacamole ’ , and the variegated Hakone grass ( Hakonechloa macra‘Aureola ’ , Zones 5 - 9 ) . The side of my menage is so shady – these hot pappa of green really animate thing up . Even the freshly emerging cicala coordinates . ”
Thanks , Jan , for take us back to your garden again !
