Great job Kate. Glad to see someone actually accomplishing their tasks for the Spring.

First, kudos to you for what Clint said above and what a great job you did with transforming that area! I hate to say it but now the staircase needs your magic touch...
Your new bed looks like a fabulous place to showcase your ever growing Semp collection. Enjoy!!

Kate I love it too!! What is that huge semp in the middle?? Its a great one! You're going to love how these grow this summer!! (and I know you'll continue sharing photos!!) totally agree with Chris - I'm impressed with how perfectly lined up the bricks are

Just beautiful. Love the pictures.

You are absolutely right. I did think about growing moss along the side, but I don't know how quickly that would end up on the steps and become slippery. Any suggestions about things that would climb up but not be too invasive?

Greg, Do you mean the grey one in the top middle or the red one towards the bottom middle. The grey is silverline. I'll have to check the red one when I get home, but it's a beauty. When it rains and the light reflects off the wet leaves and it looks hot pink.

Kate -- I will send you my address.

?? Sorry Clint not sure why?? I must have missed the joke, feeling a little mentally challenged this afternoon!

So you can (a) send my offsets and (b) find the house to help with my flower beds.

If only we could share offsets As for your beds? You're on your own!

Just joking. I will get caught up some day. Maybe. Lol.

It's a long way to haul a hoe, and I don't think they'd let me on a plane with shears

I can provide all the tools.

Oh go on then!

Kate I meant Silverline! Love it!!

What a chuckle I got from catching up on this thread. You all are so entertaining.
Love Clint's remark about sending his address, for plants and garden help.

Kate, the bed is amazing. You did such a beautiful work in the way you place stones, plants and bricks. I so look forward to seeing it as the plants start forming colonies.

Thanks Lynn, It's looking a mess again because I've had to dig it all up again, but hopefully it will be looking nice again soon.

Yes, I just finished reading the other thread that showed who the culprits are.
I'd get a chick, the kind that has feathers.

Not a bad idea! But there are cats in the neighborhood, that could be a problem!

Okay, a hen.
