Meems: Chartreuse is one of my favorite colors in the garden too! It can surely brighten the garden even without the flower!

Meems your garden looks wonderful and it is a delight for this dreary, rainy day here. The Chartreuse plantings just brightens up the bed so much. Wonderful layering.I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

I wish my northern garden looked half this beautiful. Chartreuse really does bring out the best in its neighbors. Gorgeous.

I love your wording and indeed I do swoon over the loveliness of the Chartreuse against the backdrop of fresh clean pinestraw in the garden.

Hi Carol,<br />I DO love the Creeping Jenny and I still use it in containers. I found it to be quite hardy but not at all invasive. Once in a while a piece will take root in the ground near a container and I almost *wish* it would take off. Honestly our summer humidity keeps it under control. It performs much better in the winter through spring. Summertime it struggles to look perky but hangs in

I so agree. I have chartreuse exclamation points here and there all around the garden. In my shady garden it really livens up a space.

I so agree with your estimation of chartreuse! And what a lovely word...

I love the creeping, sprawling potato vine too. I have it in two shallow containers and can&#39;t believe how far they have spread. Your eye for color and combinations is beautiful as usual.

Hi Meems,<br /><br />I love your use of chartreuse. How is your Creeping Jenny? Are you still using it containers? Did it survive the heat in your zone? I&#39;m wondering if I can use it in containers here in Jacksonville. Also, have you had any problem with it getting out of control or becoming invasive? <br /><br />Thanks!<br />Carol<br />Jacksonville, Florida
