Street Garden Update



The rock border is complete and the plants are in - now we just wait for them to grow and try to keep the weeds out! Eventually Dan and I are planning on putting in a row of lilacs between the garden and the sidewalk as an extra noise barrier from the street.

Plantings are numerous, but include some of the following: Iris, Coneflower, Ballon Flower, Phlox, Lily of the Valley, Hen and chicks, Hosta, Daisy, Forget me nots, Catmint, Black eyed Susan, Autumn Sedum, Daylilly

Dan earned major husband bonus points yesterday with the surprise he showed me when I came home from work. He bought a bunch of new hose and strung it along the top inside rail of our fence so that now all I have to do to water my new garden is drop the coil hose sprayer he got me over the fence and start spraying! No more having to drag hoses all over the yard - What a guy!
