So much to do, so little time. I have one more weekend left before the burn ban goes into effect, and then I can turn my attention to the garden. Spring is almost the only time I have flowers blooming, thanks to my seemingly epic amounts of shade, and clay soil. I am determined to do something about that this year.
Here are my plans...some of these will be for the fall or next spring, after we're finished with the back hoe work, but here is the wish list:
- impatiens in the window boxes
- flowers in pots on the porch
- bring out the houseplants to the porch
- small herb garden by the back door
- cutting garden - zinnias
- fertilize azaleas & rhododendron
- fertilize boxwoods
- another raised bed
- replace camelia
- replace gardenia
- move peony
- new peony
- move Cramoisi Superieur rose
- butterfly bush?
- design & plant new hydrangeas and possibly boxwood
- Clean out back garden
- treat all hemlocks
- creeping phlox
- transplant some rock iris
- transplant some hosta
- make garden spaces to the right side of wooded path
