mmegaeraCompost is spread, and annuals are planted. So I took some pictures, not that there's much to look at yet...
Front flower bed, which I share with my next door neighbor. She does her side (but not yet this spring [g]), and I do mine. The split is pretty much just to the right of the irises.
Back flower bed. All mine. Two clematises, one on either end. The blue flowers are anemones, the yellow ones are obviously daffodils [g]. Everything else is still green, although the clematises have lots of tiny buds on them. Give them another two-three weeks...
One side of my patio, complete with grass-eating cat [sigh]. At least he threw up before he came in the house. The new seedlings in the pots are Sugar Daddy petunias (my favorite petunia variety), and lobelia, both freshly planted. The purple spikes in the flower bed are hostas, which will completely cover it by June.
The other side of the patio, featuring the bleeding heart that ate New York. And hellebores, and the past-their-prime pansies I just transplanted out of the big pots so as to make room for the petunias and lobelia. The scraggly plant in the small pot is a pineapple sage, that just came outside from being nursed through a sunless Pacific NW winter indoors.
BTW, if anyone in the U.S. (I'm dubious about shipping seeds out of the U.S. due to potential customs restrictions) wants some poppy seeds, I have lots, mostly pink and purple. If you're interested, esp. if you have seeds to trade, but even if you don't, send me an LJ message.
