beach shelter 4 image
travel6188
I have a north facing backyard. I live at the beach in Southern California. Can't figure out why the perenniel gardens in England are so beautiful but get so little sun and are invariably damp from the rain. I would love an English perenniel garden back yard, but most everything dies. Any thoughts?
Answer
Primarily due to the moist,cool weather we enjoy here in the UK.Suggestions for your north border,
1.Anemone hupehensis.Pink,red and white flowers,grow well in partial shade.
2.Astilbe (Spirea).The arendsii hybrids suit any moist position.
3.Dicentra spectabilis.Requires moisture at roots,shade from strong sunshine.
4.Helleborus.Christmas rose.For a sheltered position in partial shade.
5.Hosta.Useful for north borders.
6.Phlox.Likes rich soil and shade from strong sun.
7.Primula.In variety.Growing as Phlox.
8.Ranunculus.aconitifolius flor-pleno,for a moist shady border.
9.Solidago.golden rod.
Hydrangeas and hardy fuchsia are others which may suit.Good luck,send me some oranges,please!

What is your favorite Hawaiian Island to live at and why?
Nani Girl
Personally, I love Maui. Not only because it is my home, but because it is the right size and has a lot of diverse landscapes. We have the rainforest, volcanoe crater, wetlands, valleys, and mountains, and white sand and black sand beaches. And it only takes 2 &1/2 hours at the most to get to places. I wouldn't say it is too overcrowded yet. And we have just enough tourists for locals to live on a comfortable income.
Answer
I live on all the islands but I do love Maui I only like Hana that is the magic area. I really didnât like the rest of the island well north shore of Maui is alright it was way to humid and dry for me, I live there for like 4 months but the cost of gas prices and groceries wow. I am very lucky and fortunate to live in Oahu now, There is so much to do, Am lucky enough to live on the tropical side of Oahu. And the reason why I like Oahu so much is,
If I feel like city life and the mood to go shopping I go down south. If I feel like dessert side and want to motorcross I go west, if I want tropical and surf I go north. I love pipeline. If I feel like mountainside go east and there is shopping there to. I can go to the movie theater for a $1.00 at restaurant row, I know where are all the best hidden local spots and snorkel spots are and there is a best buy here I have access to any electronic CD or DVD I want. If my car breaks down they have the best bus transportation. There are plenty of jobs here and if I need to get away from the crowds I can always go see any island I want for 20.00 and I get free shelter cuz I have friends all over the islands. When I get bored of the islands I go to California and go to magic mountain and Disneyland. And sometimes to Colorado to snowboard. But every island does have there own beauty. I am going to move away from the islands one day I am planning on moving to Cape Town South Africa.
