Yesterday, I finally got the landscape fabric put down in the veggie garden and the veggies planted!! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Big Grin

The old tree garden is now complete after adding ten plants, 6 lavender, 3 purple liatris divisions (they've got transplant shock going on, right now Sad ), and the Starry Starry Night hibiscus. Hurray! The lavender and liatris flower colors will anchor the varied colors of the daylilies, for a sense of consistency. The liatris will lend a vertical element to this garden. All the foliage from these plants will offset the foliage of the daylilies in color and/or texture, not to mention that the hibiscus foliage is really dark! These plants will also extend the blooming season along with some daylilies in this garden. I just love to see purple, pink, and blue colors offset the Fall colors! Green Grin! Green Grin!

So, after 4 years of thinking and rethinking this garden, it has finally come together to my satisfaction!!! Hurray! Hurray!

This garden is gonna get two waterings a day for a while, and hopefully mulched next weekend. Crossing Fingers! Crossing Fingers!

Got scapes popping up!! Hurray! Hurray!
