Journal Journey Part 18
March 1, 2009 – 10:00 amA final page for 1997. The Hansa in bloom and in it’s final resting place. After 10 years, no winter protection needed, just a healthy Spring clipping and a lot of deadheading throughout the summer.
And I started to add little beds (bottom image) to the outside of the raised beds, to extend the planting area. Green tam juniper, bergenia and purple carpet sedum fill this one. The empty clay saucer served as a robin bath tub.
I miss having robins visit the garden. In the downtown core, you can hear them singing occasionally, but I’d be surprised if one ever visited the balcony.
