Well, the area in front of the Little Tree Garden used to be the Lupine Garden but mostly the Lupines there died and only three left. I did not replace them this spring. The actual Little Tree in a pot (it is a Mulberry tree) had daylilies around it. So I planted Snapdragons there, red in the first row and yellow in the second. Well be planting more FRUIT PUNCH POPPY plants in back of the Snaps when those plants arrive.

Then the area immediately to the left is the area that started out as the annual garden. Slowly I got permant plants in there. Now I just plant Marigolds in the very front for color there as I have daffodils, poppies and lilies in that section.

I was planting those annuals (snaps and marigolds) there today and I think it looks nice with the addition of that extra color.

The last pictures is taken from further back so that you can see the tomato garden section that I fixed up last week and that is already planted.
