Flood Zone

After 3 days of constant rain, we had a lot of water in the back.  The 'henge (top centre) overflowed into the gardens.  In the middle of this picture is what Kelly says is the real DHD - but unless you watch StarGate you won't really care.

Plant Moves - Back Centre

Kelly has been busy the last couple of days.  He moved the tall 'David' and 'Blue Boy' phlox from here to the far end of the back centre garden (behind 'Laura').  Seems strange because they had been in this spot since the garden was first planted.
From that spot he dug up the pale pink Oriental lilies and moved them here.  He also moved the pink monkshood here.  Some of the purple iris will go back along the left side.  Two 'Mojave' lilies will be moved into here, along with the sea holly from the rock garden.  Hoping to get two dahlia in here next year too - Glenbank Twinkle and Orchid Beauty.

Kelly's Day

Today I went out for coffee, got my nails done and my hair cut.  This is what Kelly did today.

New Azalea

New azalea exbury 'Mandarin Lights' planted out front - temporarily shored up till we get another load of soil.

grows to 4-5' - sun/part

Imagination Required

Changes to the ring garden:
- pulled up all the Panorama bee balm
- planted new purple campanula 'Superba' in front
- planted a division of Moonbeam coreopsis on the corner
- in the fall, Danielle phlox will go in back where there is a sorry looking cleome now
