This page is graphic intensive. Please allow time for it to load.My in progress project is the water garden in the back of the house. In the beginning it needed the least amount of work so I put it off while tackling much larger projects. |
| I have managed to keep the weeds down. The only thing growing right now is some yellow irises and a small ornamental grass. There are water lilies trying to bloom too. |
| I have a fountain and pump to install but just haven't gotten to it yet. The odd collection of rocks and shells are thing we have picked up from all over the gardens and have put here for no other reason than we did. I need to bring in some rocks and eventually pick up all the sea shells and dispose of them all or keep them. I haven't thrown them out yet because I want to see just how much of this stuff we find. |
| In the top left of this photo, the leaves hanging down, are part of a butterflie bush. It is overgrown but I am leaving it until it blooms. then I will cut it back. This side gets a lot of sun most of the day. I am trying to decide what other plants to add out here to compliment what is already there. |
| This is the full length of the garden. The water garden is to the rear. I need to do so much work out here but I just do not have enough hours in my day or strength in my body to do more tahn I am doing right now. I need a yardman. So far no luck in finding one. |
