		<description><![CDATA[Ordinarily, August is a rather quiet season in the perennial garden. The following perennials are usually useful for color in the sunny garden for late summer and early fall. One of the best overall perennials just happens to bloom in late summer, and that is Russian Sage (Perovskia).  This vase shaped, rather large plant has [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the very first perennials that I grew was the ubiquitous Lamb’s Ears, Stachys byzantina,  formerly S. lanata. An old house, really a mansion, near our home was being torn down to make way for a new school.  The day before the bulldozers arrived, a few neighbors and I took spades and buckets in [...]]]></description>

With a little extra effort and some supplies we can actually start gardening in February. It&#8217;s too early to begin vegetables and annuals, but just the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My favorite Spring perennials are members of the Primula family, or Primroses.  This family consists of many hybrids and cultivars, some hardy in Central New York.  All require shade and a relatively moist location.  They may be divided at any time, even when in full flower.  Some species readily seed themselves around, and increase rapidly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While there are many choices for colorful plants for the late season, the following perennials are some of the best in terms of ease of care and beauty.   All these plants require full sun and healthy garden soil. First are the old standbys Chrysanthemums, which for many of us are not reliable perennials.   Although I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rock and alpine plants need fast drainage and love to cool their roots against stone. Porous Tufa stones are ideal but hard to find. English gardeners would often use old stone sinks and livestock troughs as an alternative.  The porous stone of these vessels was perfect for growing difficult little alpine plants.  Obviously, the supply [...]]]></description>
