It's hard to get a full picture of my yard because it's mostly full sun. Here is the side bed. Lots of green, but not many flowers yet. I still need to weed and put down mulch. The bed is straight because DH needed to get the riding mower around. I've love to shape it differently, but for now, I will have to add depth using the plants.
My Geraniums-I bought these at our plant sale last year. They took a hit with our last frost, but seem to be doing well now.
My first Carnation bloom. I winter sowed this last year and over wintered in the garage (it was in a planter). I took the plant out and planted it in the side yard. The smell is heavenly!
These are my shade pots. I have Coleus and impatiens planted. The Coleus will get about 2 feet tall.
This is my first year growing herbs. I have Oregano, Dill, and Rosemary. The Rosemary is still very tiny, but the others are growing like gang busters.
Blue Eyed Grass which started blooming today. I bought this at our plant sale last year. I need to move it, but will wait until this fall.
Our front bed, which is 2 years old. In the front are Shasta Daisies, and Sedum in the front.
This is view from around the side of the house. Red Hot Poker in the bottom, with Coreopsis to the left. RHP was winter sowed. The Coreopsis was bought last year and moved and split this spring.
A view of our backyard. This is the middle of the yard. The veggie garden is to the left. The stone bed to the left is what I have used as a holding bed, and cutting garden. I want DH to move it this fall because it gets in the way of the hose.
This is the left side of the yard.
This is the right side of the yard. The large tree is my neighbors. Our property line is where the little trees are.
This is the back of the lot. We planted the shrubs last fall. I have Hollyhocks in the back which will, hopefully, hide the neighbors ugly fence!
