Front Border 2 |
About 1/2 of the bulbs are moved from the Vancouver place, mostly in the past couple of weeks.
As I go along, I add compost mulch to prevent weed seed germination.
There are some large patches of weeds but it's getting there. Should be nice when the flowers open.
I moved violets here from home, for ground cover. Some people consider violets invasive. Here, they occasionally self-sow new plants but have been in the Vancouver yard for 15 years and have barely increased their area. Dividing them and replanting, they might fill in somewhat and reduce weed growth.
Sedum sarmentosum might be good here, if underlying weeds don't take over again.
I have left patches for summer flowers. This is where I want to plant the Mirabilis jalapa.
Most of the plants here are deer and rabbit resistant. I also want to add some herbs for color and for kitchen use. There is lavender, rosemary, and garlic chive now for color and bee forage.
There is more to do. I'm not / can't be in a hurry.
