Better late than never...

Normally we have our flowers all planted and the mulch "refreshed" by garage sale time (mid-May)...but not this year. Seems we had so much going on with the boys, school, trips, etc. that we got a late start. Just wanted to post a few pics of what we did. Here's just a glance of quite a few things going on in the front yard. The ornamental grass, rose bushes (which need pruning), some hostas, brown eyed susans (about to bloom), and some other things.
I always do petunias (ya can't kill a petunia!) in the front window box. They're still kinda sparse. The weather hasn't been all that "summery" yet...still cloudy and cool. Not too many hot, sunny days. They'll start filling in and "climbing" as soon as it warms up a bit.

I have two of these pots (one on either side of the garage door). Just did a mixture of different kinds of flowers and vines. I think it's pretty.


Here's the side of the yard...our day lillies and spirea. The day lillies are taking their time blooming too. Only two of the eight plants have bloomed yet. But they're getting there...slowly but surely!


And here's just the front of the house. All our landscaping...and the nice green grass...Jamie's "baby"...LOL!
