Flower Bed Progress

Perennial plants bring with them perennial weeds. The flower bed is no exception. The worst weeds are creeping charlie and grass.








The first phase was to clear some space so Ken could plant annuals at the front of the border.










Now I am working my way back through the rest. The weeds will compost and become an input. Ken also suggested some other soil amendments this year. We will see how they work.






And why do I do this? Flowers. Here is the first iris of the season. Late, but well worth the wait.
