Solar Mosaic Plans Bankruptcy Filing as Clean-Energy Woes Mount
Solar Mosaic LLC, one of the largest US providers of home solar loans, is planning to file for bankruptcy in the face of market uncertainty over federal support of clean energy, according to people familiar with the matter. The Oakland, California-based company recently stopped issuing loans after a new round of financing fell through due to the US House advancing President Donald Trump's massive tax and spending bill, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing a private matter. The tax bill would end generous tax incentives for residential solar systems and is now being debated in the Senate.

Penstemon I love this plants genus of because most will flower all summer and autumn. They'll grow in sun or semi-shade in a well drained soil and produce a non-stop display of tubular flowers in an array of colours and colour combination to suit all tastes. Luzula sylvatica 'Marginata' With the evergreen leaves edged with yellow it's great asset is that it will grow in sun or shade in any type of soil and is great as groundcover in the hardest spot to fill - dry shade. Eryngium x zabelii 'Big Blue' A stunning, nectar-rich plant that will feed the beneficial insects in your garden. Leave the flowerheads once they have turned brown because they look stunning with winter frost and snow, extending the plant's interest period.

The scent is stunning and the evergreen leaves create an excellent backdrop for the summer flowers.

Sanguisorba hakusanensis 'Lilac Squirrel' I've never seen a squirrel with a drooping, shaggy lilac tail, but this variety will give your garden an unusual and different look throughout summer. It does need a moisture retentive soil but will grow in sun or semi-shade.
