The slugs completely devoured the flat of annual dahlias I planted here in May. I've learned my lesson and am not planting them again. I think this area will look just fine with the current combination of spring and summer blooming perennials.

Staking Siberian Iris & other perennials
It's time to pull out all those wonderful Y-stakes to prop up Siberian Iris, Delphinium, and other perennials that are falling down. Here is a picture of my lower hillside area that shows my staked iris. I added three Penstemon heterophyllus 'Margarita BOP' plants to fill in with some summer color. I see some of the summer-blooming perennials I added last summer are coming up and looking good - hooray!
