We have just installed a 3' high 32' long picket fence. The fence accents just the right front side of the house and is positioned in front of a 30' pine and 2 burning bushes. There is an area in front of the fence for plantings. I would like something to be neat and tidy throughout the year but would also like good hardy perennials that bloom for a long period. I don't like day lilies as they are messy after they bloom. The fence sits about 100' from the road and gets full sun. We have a very healthy deer population and we live in central Ohio. I was thinking that boxwoods with maybe some Russian sage or salvia would work nicely. What ideas do you suggest? Am I off base with what I suggested? On the one post of the fence we will have a large USA flag which will be near a pole lamp to illuminate. Thank you. AR

"Susan, what a pleasure it was to work with you. You made me feel like I was your only client - responding late at night and always so quickly! Your design is amazing and we only hope we can do justice to it when we plant . You have such fantastic ideas and you are so open to suggestions and changes. Loved working with you - now if you could only come to Canada and plant it !!! "
