A panoramic of the island. I initially started it to cut down on the view and road noise. It's been expanded three times but I'm sure this will be the last.
I planted 6 Huchera (Coral Bells) called Peach Flambe'
I think they look good near the variegated sedum.
Most of these plants were transplanted so some look a little wimpy right now.
These little yellow flowers are from a plant (Heliopsis) called Tuscan Sun they should look much better next year.
You may have noticed my garden statue. She's kind of like that famous Bird Girl statue as seen in the movie Midnight In the Garden of Good and Evil. Not as delicate and not as pricey!
This is a plant called (Helenium plant) Sneezeweed and a nearby coneflower.
Some phlox are blooming and contrast nicely with the Blue Oat Grass.
Up by the garage this planter is coming along nicely. The "Prince Tut" grass in the center didn't get as tall as I'd hoped but the Superbena Royal Chambry are doing well.
I started these Dahlias from bulbs a while it took a bit for them to finally start blooming they are putting out a lot of flowers now. I just dead headed half a dozen flowers off of it. I used the topiary frame to support them and force the blooms upright.
I've been busy with family visiting and having to go downstate to address my mother's estate affairs. She's still alive and just turned 97 but is now living in an adult assisted care facility. Getting older sure makes you have to face up to things you didn't expect!
