Backyard Update

OK here's what's up.  I know it won't look like much right now, but I'm hoping the change will really look nice next season.


It's hard to see so you might have to click the pic for a larger view.  Anyway, the mint is still in the front and center.  I moved some ailing plants to this location after I raked it out.  There are Mums, lilies and iris in the new location.  In the Fall I'll have a ton of pine straw falling in my yard so I will mulch it with them.




Here's those plants that are popping up.  Still don't know what they are.


They look pitiful but I think they will be OK.  They were watered heavily over the last two days and we got some rain last night.






This is where the butterfly bush was planted.  There really is a baby Maple in there.  It went into shock and dropped its leaves.  But, I'm sure it will be just fine.

That's about it for now.  How's your garden doing?

    You're doing great! Feels good to be in touch with nature doesn't it?

    I'm sure everything will do fine. I can't wait to watch that baby maple grow.
