Last fall Bryan and I diligently planted around 200 bulbs around our house. Never having planted bulbs I think we did a pretty good job because they actually bloomed. Below are some of the flowers that have already started blooming.
*Perr look closely at the last picture, notice anything wrong with the tulip leaves in the front?
A few weekends ago Bryan’s parents were kind enough to come and visit us and help do some much needed “landscaping”. We woke up early on Saturday morning and ripped out 80% of the plants in the front yard and moved them to the back yard. Then we replanted “plants” for a foundation garden in front of our porch. I’m using the term plants very loosely here because some of them looked like roots and they in no way resembled any plant I have ever seen. With some time, hopefully they will grow and add much needed color to the front of the house. I forgot to take a before picture, but the after picture looks like we planted mini plants so there isn’t much to compare. However, I did notice this morning that one of the smaller plants had purple flowers on it. I’m surprised because the weekend after we planted them it snowed for four days. I was afraid they were all going to die but they pulled through. I’ll post more pictures next year when the plants are a little larger. Thanks again for all the hard work and sweat.
Bryan and I moved into our new home in Washington in mid June. Since then We have been busy painting, decorating, and exploring Washington. We are still have many rooms to paint but at least we got rid of the horrible sky blue color in the living-room and kitchen. During the summer we found out how much work it was to take care of even a small yard. However, we are very happy to have a yard . . . all of our herbs now have a place to grow and we are going to try and plant a vegetable garden next year! We have plenty of room for visitors so stop on by!
