Gardens/ Yard

Hi! 

I've been doing a lot of yard work and have broken our rake.  The handle was quite bowed, and that was ok, but now the metal has broken.  I guess we need a new one!

Here are our junk piles- out in the front for all to see. 

It's actually, not that much.  I think one (or maybe 2) trips to the Waste Watch will be rid of it. 

(I've spread it out to kill the grass so I can dig it up!)

Here is the front side yard. 

And here's the turn around spot. 

The gardens are doing well.  Here's the courtyard. 

 Since we have a lot of leftover trellis, I may put one in front of the garbage cans and divide a hosta to put in front of the trellis. It would really look nice with a tall cedar in front, like on the other side. But, we're not sure how long we'll keep that building there on the right so it might not make sense to plant another tree just yet.

Here's the left side of the courtyard.

And the ferns on the right that are hidden by the trash cans. 

Here's the right side garden. 

The right front garden.

The left front garden.  

 Did I mention before about the plant above in front of the hydrangea bush?  It's grown so much, but the one on right hasn't grown much at all... I guess I'll just leave it for this year, but I'm thinking of just putting a hosta plant in its place on the right side.

I guess this would be the left side garden

There are 2 hosta plants that could be divided under the lilac bush, which is almost blooming!

Here's the side of the trailer. 

The rose bush is looking pretty sad.  I may as well dig it up.  The lupines that are supposed to grow in front of the back of the trailer have all migrated to the side where the old deck used to be. 

That's the yard update for this week! :-)
