Chlorophyll, My Drug of Choice
May. 16th, 2011 08:27 pmIt's too wet to do much else but take pictures, but here's the garden in May. I think the caffeinated chicken poo is working!

I was inspired by river beds when I made these curvy flower beds. The big lettucy things are poppies.

This is very uninspiring. Perhaps if I'd taken pictures of the mess it was before. Still, I am very excited about my infant shade garden.

This is what it looks like in my imagination, so it's more fun for me. The background shrubs are California Wax Myrtle, and Red Flowering Currant. It's my understanding that both are natives that birds love. Everything's native here except that I'm fudging on the rhodies.

'Herb' garden in progress. Oregano and parsley and poppy are visible. Hidden/sown is rosemary, cilantro, summer savory. Wanted: purple sage.
