It's that time of the year when everything is popping up. Surprisingly I've had some flops. Why? God only knows. I planted a whole bunch of Zinnia's from seed and this is what popped up instead.

| and more WEEDS... |
So because of all these nasty weeds -- I had to use some elbow grease and get down and dirty by pulling everything up. I ended up replacing all the weeds with perennials (flowers that come back every year) from my existing garden. So this is wha it looks like now.

| Liatris/Blazing Star |
 |
| Hosta and Hydrangea |
 |
| Few Zinnia's that survived |
 |
| Fountain Grass and Hosta |
 |
| Day Lillies |
 |
| Much better |
Gardening is a matter of trail and error. You should never give up though. Sometimes you have flops but it's a big, big world out there with plenty other replacement options. I love the fact that I was able to get these free replacements with my existing plants from my yard. Now that's a win-win.
Until next time...
