Gardening Tips from Fran
Lysimachia nummularia is as good as it gets. This ground covering perennial roams and creeps easily and rewards you with a ton of yellow blooms.
Creeping Jenny is simply splendid around trees and shrubs , as a woodland carpet on the ground or in and amongst your hostas and ferns .
