I guess you would call me a rogue gardener. I have an acre and half of hill, much of which is wooded, where deer, squirrels as big as cats, raccoons, a groundhog and at least one resident barn snake roam about freely. There’s also a mother fox that often brings her kits/pups out to visit. I garden for fun but the one thing I get serious about is invasive plants.

Bluebells aka Cowslips

Virginia Bluebells, Cowslip are native here in Kentucky and are very reliable if planted in shade with soil that is high in orgainc matter. They are one of my favorite flowers but they die back in the summer and should always be planted with perennial that fill in once the blooms and leaves are gone.
