Rain Garden Bursting at the Seams
Look what three weeks can do! The most obvious change is the Joe Pye Weed now reaches five feet tall. New flower buds are also appearing on the top of each stem. Wait until it blooms! Thought you would like to see the rain garden's progress.
As far as upkeep, I do have to shear back the salvia so they will be compact and rebloom again. This is easy to do because it is literally cutting each plant down to about 8 to 12" tall. Other than that, there are a few weeds growing on the west side which need to be tilled under about 5 minutes of work. Everything has filled in so much there is barely any room for weeds. Don't you just love when that happens?----Carol
