The Veragated Japanese Silver Grass is in the middle of the long wall not looking like I thought it should. I need to find out what to do with it. The catmint is looking about the same. I planted them at the same time so I wonder if I did something wrong with both of them (Kyndall actually did the digging.
I realize you can't really see this very well, but close up it looks nice, even though something knocked the right side of the wild flowers down. I think it was a deer, but it could have been the strong wind and storm we had 2 weeks ago.
Here is a close up of the wild flowers and how they look on 7/24/07.
There is also a close up of the yellow flowers (I've temporarily forgotten their names). I love them as border flowers. I want to get more for the other side of that wall. My impatients aren't doing as well as I would like, mostly for lack of watering probably. The clematis behind them started the summer great and have then stopped. I'm hoping it's just a first year thing and next year they will do better. I worry that it is because I didn't loosen up the ground well enough when I first dug them (I didn't know I was supposed to then.)
I would really like to take a horticulture class to get all the basics down.
