WHAT A DIFFERENCE A MONTH MAKES

Here are before and after shots of our garden...taken about 6 weeks apart. The perennials have filled in the blank spots. Our garden theme this summer: "Garden of the Misfit Plants".


Our annual window box & tropical container plantings are dried out rejects, were saved (with the garden center owner's blessing) from the "to be tossed" pile or germinated from old seed packet samples. I am also transplanting tree seedlings--I found a bevy of Ginkgo tree seedlings (literally with seeds attached) underneath our community's elderly trees. (Update by Farmer Eric)
