Welcome to My New Garden


It's tiny but I like it. This is the reason I haven't been doing much of the bloggin.

Let's see - from right to left and back to front we have:

BACK ROW
**??? - a white, tall perennial
**a bunch of baby pink impatients
**Russian Sage -purple flower, about 12" high perennial
**Hosta - this one's green with white border
**sunflower - which I hope will get enough sun but since it's Rene's favorite flower, I had to get it
**another bunch of baby pink impatients

MIDDLE ROW
**a half ring of baby pink and salmon impatients annuals
**a dark purple petunia bunch, also an annual

BOTTOM ROW
**periwinkle veronica which is excellent groundcover and is recommended for the edge of beds

Then I put up a fence and some butterfly stakes along with a cute "Welcome" thingy. I'm totally buying a Garden Gnome to put in the corner, as well.

The white thing to the right is where I'm going to *try* to grow some red peppers, chives and basil. Under the white things are: wet newspaper, covered with bags. This helps kill the sod so that it's easier to pull up and turn loose. After that, I'll add the planting soil and some mulch and wait while my seeds grow inside before transplanting them...

Such Fun!
