Follow these fabulous Foliage Follow-Up links
Luscious foliage in a Lancaster Avenue garden in Buffalo, NY
Even in this month of bounteous flowers, foliage anchors the summer garden. Celebrating each month’s favorite foliage plants is what Foliage Follow-Up is all about. I invite all bloggers to join me on the 16th of each month, right after Bloom Day, in posting about your leafy goodness. Embarrassingly, I didn’t get my act together, after recent travels, to do my own foliage post this month. But that doesn’t mean I’m not keenly interested to know about your favorites for July.
Several bloggers have already posted about theirs and thoughtfully linked back to Digging so that I could find them. Their links are below. If I’ve missed your Foliage Follow-Up post for July, please let me know in a comment, and I’ll add your link to the list.

Hi Pam,
I’m new to garden blogging, but could you please add me to the foliage follow-up list? It’s a great idea and thanks for thinking of it. I love you’re blog, especially all of your garden design ideas. Thanks.

Hi, David. Thanks for joining in this month! I’m loving the look of your tropical-style Houston garden. You have an interesting mix of lush and spiky. By the way, if you’ll enable the Name/URL option in your comment field, people without accounts (like me) will be able to leave you a comment too. Cheers! —Pam
Hello Pam
One of my commentators yesterday suggested that my most recent post should be part of your monthly Foliage Followup. Its called “Beauty without bloom”

I’m also looking forward to seeing more of your Buffalo pictures – they are so inspiring for a UK gardener.
Thankyou 🙂 Rosie
Hi Pam,
Thanks for the Name/URL tip. I’m learning so much from the rest of the bloggers. I have “spiky” in the front beds and “lush” in the back. That way if it rains all summer(like this year) I’m happy or if we get a record drought (like last summer) I’m happy. I’ve got both bases covered to alleviate disappointments. My transition between the two areas is called ‘house’. BTW: I love your circle themes and new garden trails. You’ve got a nice style. 🙂 david
Thanks for posting this, Pam! I hadn’t seen most of these posts before, so I really appreciate having a few more foliage to drool over tonight. 🙂
