with the major planting in the back yard. over the last week, with some help, i've planted coneflowers, ferns, hostas, astibiles, impatiens, bleeding hearts, coralbells, and the last five plants today- elijah blue fescue, an ornamental grass. when i bought this house i dreamed of perennial flowerbeds, so i'd have less grass to cut (HA!). the majority of the work is done, there will likely be some minor additions, but the biggest part is done! woohoo! time for an iced tea and a tylenol.
