Past Project Update: The Palisade Garden Bed

 Here is an updated view of the garden bed we carved out of the edge of the thicket  last July.  It contains grasses divided from various areas of the landscape and the myrtle ground cover that was already there and moved aside during excavation.  Next year I will try to add some color and different textures but they will have to be very deer resistant plants.

Completion Last Year

Below is the original clump of Flame Grass that the majority of the grass was divided from.  As you can see, it needs to be divided again.  It has gotten unruly and flattened out in the last rain.


A view along the back line of grasses.


A Johnson Perennial Geranium divided out of the Creek Bed Garden spills out of my PaPaw's hog boiler.

Below is one of the Foxtrot grasses divided in March.


And this is one of the Little Bunny grasses I divided the end of June.
