PLANTS IN MY GARDEN

I have been known to freak out with delight over plants that are quite pedestrian.  You'll notice my garden, less than two years old, contains many common items. I am in the process of weeding out failing and/or uninspiring specimens, many of which are not even included here.  Struck through items did not last through last summer or this year's second winter (post-April snow storms), either due to my lack of special care, too much water, or who knows what other causes.
