My gardens are located in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Walking Rain
The gardens already had two mature pines and several spreading junipers in the front yard, as well as two evergreen Chinese privets, a Spanish broom, and an upright juniper in the back.

A huge Virginia Creeper vine covers the back fence.

There are two aspens in back, and a big old cottonwood to shade the house. Along the street there are purple leaf plums and honeylocusts.

Goldenrod / Solidago

Solidago 'Little Lemon' 
from High Country Gardens in spring 2024

Expectations:
A very compact plant, although it has kind of a wild rangy look for a little goldenrod. It gets to only 14 inches high. Supposedly rabbits are a problem.


Experiences:
I put this in the outer circle around the birdbath, next to a blue sage.
