The astrantias and hakonechloa around the base are new additions. I planted them as close to the drip-line of the shrubs as possible with the hope that they will grow forward as part of a lush mound of foliage.
A (mostly) unedited blog about my creative and artistic endeavors. If I did it...or made it...or thought it...I probably blogged it.

Garden: Seattle Weather--It's Not What You Think
Think of Seattle and you will likely conjure images of grey, dripping skies...
...lush foliage...
...our many urban lakes and waterways...
...and water...water everywhere.
