So pleased with the front garden beds. They are weed free, and filled with perennials that will flower throughout the seasons. All these photos were taken on Memorial Day weekend.
Here's what we have, from East to west...
- The Hanoki pine... Great place for birds to hide, or even nest?
- Liatris spicata about to be planted
- black pine, not doing too great. The front is strong, but the back looks like it's dying.
- transplanted day lilies from a shady spot in the back yard where they never bloomed. I hope we'll get to see what they look like this year.
- two mugo pines
- daffodils and grape hyacinth and regular hyacinth
- astilbe with red flower head and greenish red leaves
- backdrop of tall perennial grass
- Black-eyed Susan
- two wild indigo (ice blue)
- bird bath
- stachys humelo
- penstemon tubaeflorus

And also our gorgeous dogwood that has finally taken off. It was planted over a drainage field and was stunted for 10 years until it's roots found their way.
