Bought most of my flower seeds already. Guess it's too late to consult the plant list for the hobbit garden. :)
One problem I have is that I've got a downspout draining right where I want to put in a walkway. There's English Ivy around it now. I'm thinking of putting a little rock garden there.
Ya know what I think would be really cool? I'd love it if for the new place, I could get everyone to pick some sort of flower seed that would be pretty easy to grow and send it to me. Could do a Hobbit Hole garden using just those.
OK, so it's a quirky idea.
Rock gardens are nice! Hens and chicks grow good in rock gardens don't they? They may not flower, but I like 'em.
OT - consider the rock garden to be your naturalized energy diffuser; reduces the hydraulic effect of the concentrated flow from the downspout and allow the rainwater to seek it's own path into the yard.
