Here's my garage garden, in various shades of purple
There's moss phlox, anemone, muscari, creeping phlox, violets, and a very early geranium bloom.
Here's a closer look at that far end:
A few struggling tulips in the side garden
A few tulips and moss phlox, with some leftover crocus, on the patio terrace.
Blueberries!
This one could be problematic - the other blueberries haven't opened their buds yet, so I don't know if this plant will get pollinated.
I haven't even started the spring cleanup in the right terrace bed (I always seem to leave one part of a chore undone), but the Iberis (candytuft), Euphorbia myrsinites, and moss phlox are putting on their spring show anyway.
Yes, my garden thrives on neglect!
Isn't it nice to have a garden that can just do its thing at times?
ReplyDeleteMy weeds thrive on neglect. And I just absolutely don' have time to deal with them. I think I'm going to have to hire someone. Grump. My lamb's ear that you gave me last year are looking good. Am I supposed to clear them out/prune them at all? there is some other plant you gave me, can't for the life of me think of the name, but it's growing back nicely too.
ReplyDeleteMerf - Just pull the dead parts out of the lamb's ear to clean it up, but it doesn't really need any more attention. I don't remember what else I gave you, maybe columbine?
ReplyDeleteGONSS - yes, it is nice! I'm working toward more self-sustainability - my biggest barrier to that is all the ivy that needs so much pruning!
