Moon Garden

Several years ago our small dogwood tree bloomed. It happened to be on a year when the weather was good and the moon was right. A marvelous thing happened. The white blossoms on the tree seemed to float in the moon light. I was hooked. Ever since then I have been thinking that a moon garden would be perfect around that tree. I want plants that bloom June through September because those are the months when we spend time outside on the deck at night.

Here is my suggested plant list:

Lily Casa Blanca
Campanula White Clips
Snow on the Mountain
Scabiosa White
White Yarrow
White Phlox
Snow Drift Aster

I will be limited by what I can find at Colemans. However, these would be great plants to have and hope to add some, if not all of them.
