Sunday after was a beautiful day and my days to finally get the plants moved from the farm were ticking away as before I know it, there will snow and bad weather.
I accessed what was at the farm and places I had here that I could plant plants.  I ended up with this along the south side of the house.  From the air conditioner unit to the white fence I planted iris’.  They  are a good old fashion hardy flower that need little to no maintenance so I wanted them.  Along the white fence are a variety of other plants I had at the farm…Russian Sage, Veronica, Coreopsis, Lillies and I can’t remember what else.  At this point, I am not real picky.  I simple what to get plants in the ground.  Next year I can play with their placing if I don’t like it.
Along the garage which is the south side I planted variegated hostas and my one hearty purple aster.
A mismatch of more plants were planted along the front of what will be the vegetable garden on each side of the trellis. Â I moved my Clematis’ and I so hope they come back along with some plants that I originally got from my mother’s flower garden. Â They really mean a lot to me.
At this point I have two rose bushes that I thought about moving yet but other than that, I think we can finally say we have everything from the farm. Â That is so nice to be able to say. Â All summer we’ve been wanting to move the plants but really couldn’t until we had the lawn landscaped.
Thankfully Sunday the weather was amazing….just beautiful. Â It was a great day to be outside and working….and it was a great job to have finished. Â I do have to keep reminding myself that although the plants look scraggly now they will look much better next year.
I am a plant person, love digging in the dirt, good to see plants at your new home, a house is not a home if you don’t have a few flowers around.
