It's good that we all have our own taste; otherwise all gardens would look the same!<br />The plant name is Edgeworthia chrysantha 'Nanjing Gold' (Paperbush). Isn't it beautiful? I have one blooming in my garden - long lasting, interesting flowers, a jewel in the winter garden!

They have come up with some easy doable solutions that the average gardener on a budget can copy and implement in his/her own garden to support wildlife as organicgardendreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122516730008378516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-557907622038340443.post-23907828859158628062015-03-02T09:56:55.753-08:002015-03-02T09:56:55.753-08:00They showed some practical, easy-to-do things!
