ROBIN'S NEST

ROBIN'S NEST

    (Carol Coleman/Jayme Adams, R. 2003) Sdlg. 2000 G-8. SDB, 9 ½" (24 cm), E
    Introduced by Carol on behalf of her daughter Jayme Adams, 'Robin's Nest' is a perennial favorite in our gardens, particularly with anyone entranced by brown flowers.  Chocolate, earthy, and underscored with shades of red, this short SDB shines against contrasting plants like golden creeping Jenny (Lysimachia nummularia 'Aurea') or variegated bugleweeds (Ajuga).  Spot a clump of this in your rock garden and watch it go.  Award-winning!  Photo by Carol Coleman.
