Rewards for Hard Work

The clematis is outdoing itself this year! We have 3 splendid plants in bloom. The plants near the mail box are about to bloom and the newest little clematis climbing the dog fence is beginning to bloom too. I'm very happy with the plants I picked this year for the hanging baskets and driveway planters. The garden beds have really filled out splendidly too. My newest garden bed is taking shape and I think the last plants I add will be some pink and lavender Astilbe. I'll add a bunch of bulbs to the new bed this Fall too. Now if I could just tame my old garden beds! The lupine is gorgeous this year and I added two more plants today. I need to transplant some daylilies and beat back the daisies! I need to order and spread lots and lots of mulch too. Good exercise!
