Grow For Me

Yesterday, I added some plants to the side garden. My "vision" is for all these plants to grow in nice and full this summer. This is the worst part because everything looks so puny and garden magazines always have these full, lush, mature gardens and makes you feel like a failure. When they get established, I'll surround them with peat moss to retain moisture.



Here is another view. I forgot I started some snow and sugar snap peas along the fence. I also started some perennial sweet peas to give it some color and to give us a little privacy when they grow up the fence. I also had a ton of Irises, so I seperated them and replanted them in different areas of the yard to "fill in the voids".


My new addition. Pink ranunculus.


I planted some store started strawberries and my zucchini outside. I fenced them in for the time being because something was eating my strawberries. I plan on adding some marigolds and petunias along the front for aesthetic purposes.


Mr. SP woke up really early and finished the top soil up spreading it around the back side of the yard.

He bought me two surprises - this little maple tree.


And this super skinny hose which I can remove and walk around with. It's really light.
