My New Perennial Garden

Greetings!  It's been awhile since I posted.  I lost one of my Aunts recently, so I've been spent so time reflecting on my life's journey and ensuring my priorities are in order as well as getting some rest.   

I feel that I'm at a good place in my grieving process, and I'm ready to return to other things that I love.  I put in a new perennial garden.  I planted a few Knock Out Roses, Yarrow, Chicks and Hens, and Dianthus.  Added a few rocks and a new bird feeder. 

The pictures don't do it justice.  I love how it turned out.  I need to mulch and edge, but for the most part its done.  I'll add a few more perennials when I find a sale or a few that need some TLC on a clearance rack to fill in some gaps. 

I did get a few containers planted and the boxes for my deck.  I decided to go with deep purple and red petunias accompanied by Creeping Jenny for trailers.  I usually go with Vinca, but I found the Creeping Jenny for $.50 each on clearance.  I filled a few pots with trailing petunias, Spikes, Moss Rose, and Celosia. 

 A co-worker gave me a bunch of raspberries.  I cleared a 300 foot fence row that I plan to fill with birdhouses, wildflowers, adirondack chairs, an assortment of berries, and whatever else that I find, lol.  Now off to rest, pull weeds from the shrubbery beds, mulch and plant out the vegetable garden.  How's things growing in your garden?  Any specials projects that you're working on?
