Garden

In the fall of 2007, we decided we wanted a garden in the front. We went to the greenhouse and bought some plants. We treated the planting instructions as "guidelines" that could be ignored with minimal difference. Those plants died during the spring of 2008.

This year, we decided to retry this gardening thing. We dug out the front garden as deep as a shallow grave. We bought some plants and refilled it with brand new top-soil. We covered with mulch. Look at the results:





Okay, it is boring. It resembles a garden you might find at a municipal 9-hole golf-course. However, except for the bushes, all the plants are annuals and we'll get to replant next year; we hope our confidence grows (no pun intended) after this year and we'll try something more daring next year.
