Flowers


Here are the flowers along the front walk. It only took 4 years to get them to this point where I think I like them. I've tried a bunch of different things here, and right now I think I'm happy and will leave them as-is.
Back row: Oriental lilies and Asiatic lilies (not yet blooming), Salvia (purple) and some Maiden grass (that isn't quite tall enough to see yet).
Front row: Dianthus cheddar pinks - and you can see where I ran out of money on those one year, and the next year planted (like an idiot) the red Dianthus. Both types are nice, but I'd rather have one type all the way down.
Oh yeah, and there's some Seedum in the middle - which was a dumb move because it goes with nothing, but the texture variance is nice, I guess. And to top it off, there are still a few Strawberry plants producing berries in there. Kaiky likes to hunt around and pick them.
