MY NEW GARDEN.....


This garden is by the side door and front gate. I transplanted the astillbe from the back yard because no matter how much I watered them, they would be crisp and brown by August. They are doing much better now. I bought a flat of "take me home before I die" impatiens and planted them in pots to go between the plants. The largest impatien, next to one of the new birdbaths I made, grew all winter long in the Christmas Cactus indoors. I couldn't believe that it grew, let alone bloomed, all during the winter! In late Spring I
put the cactus outside and carefully removed the impatien along with several small plants that sprouted around the edges of the pot.
