Last fall I start to dig up a new
flower bed. Which I'll call “Good Will”. I have a few bulbs
actual planted in there, early spring blooms.
My thought is to put in some flower
bushes and shorter flower, under 10 inches.
This bed is under the power line and it
will be about 3 feet across and 20 feet long.
My friend Quenella gave me some
climbing nasturtium
seeds. Planted them in the southwest corner of vegetable garden.
All flower has some type of folk lore
meaning and nasturtium means VICTORY BATTLE OR CONQUEST Peggy at end of the road. Gave me some
dark purple iris. Add them to my “hodge podge” and “Royal
Sunshine” flower bed.
Did some weeding in the hodge podge
flower bed and dug up some STAR OF BETHLAHAM
bulbs and plan to give them away.
Will need to take more star of
bethhelham out and put them in the good will flower bed.
Murphy and I did some trimming and
staking up flowers. Maybe now some light can get in there.
This yellow spike flower I keep
forgetting what it called. Every so often I have to chop it back or
it would take over the entire flowerbed.
My Aunt Eve gave me that yellow lupine
when she still was in her other home. Across the way.
It sure takes a while to build up
flower bed. Sure doesn't happen with blink. It take time and money.
It seem like I'm always short on something.
Coffee is on
It all looks so very attractive!! A job well done.
ReplyDeleteI don't own my living space so no flowers. Yours are beautiful! :)
ReplyDeletei love the magic of bulbs. the little buggers light up my life when they pop up in the spring.
ReplyDeleteI live in a condo, so I too don't have a place to plant a garden, but yours is so lovely! Thank you for sharing it with us!
ReplyDeleteGreat job with your planting. The flowers are very pretty. I really ought to try doing this too. I bet it is very rewarding to see the flowers bloom knowing you planted them.
ReplyDeleteHi - stopping by from the Facebook Blogger's Corner! LOVE the pictures of your flowers! You have given me some motivation to seriously consider getting my own little flower garden going. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThis looks brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI hate to garden and would rather go camping.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers. I went for vegetables this year but they got too dry and most have already died. I'll have to put in some seeds soon and hope for the best.
ReplyDeleteour nasturtiums grow wild here.
ReplyDeleteThe yellow lupine are so gorgeous! Wish they could grow in a tropical climate.
