I ordered a very pretty Heucherella from BS, I could not stop looking at it. It said Heucherella x Rosalie so would the name be Rosalie? Humm, there is no pic in the data base, I will get back with you on that one!! This one is a beauty!

These look pretty rough but the lobelia have actually grown quite a bit already since they got taken out of their rootbound pots. I'll post more pictures when they fill in a bit more too.

When it fills in it looks nice. I just took my time getting around to planting it up. I actually mixed it up with blue and whites.

Yep, regular pvc pipe. My son made it. I have plans in pdf if you'd like. He put a tube down the center for watering but my DH usually sets up a timed drip system for me.

Do not use Milorganite to keep dogs away they love it. You know how dogs like cow manure same here, will roll around in it.

Ok, I don't have dogs but it does work good for rabbits and cats. Spring needs an animal repellent, how about pepper? They always sniff around, right? If they get a wif-of-jif they probably won't be back for a while.

You can spray vinegar around edges of garden, Do not get on the plants it could kill them. I have been lucky with training my dogs not to go into them.

Jo Ann, I have to thank you. I was looking for a pathway idea and your pathways have fixed my puzzle.

Susan your projects are inspiring all the time. I wish I had your garden eye.

Arlene thank you also. I am a junk collector and I have some left over pipe from house projects. Now I can put that junk to good use.

Cinta :these gardens were my idea came from.I like the casual look of recycled stone.She includes glazed pieces too but here in the north they would shatter in the freezing winters.

I covered my concrete patio with blue stone and I have some left over I will use that and pick up the sandstone you used.

I am starting a new post to get some ideas. I know I want to use your walkway.
