After last year’s construction we have to clean up the area behind the new garage.

That bed with the blue flowers will get a new edge and we need to put grass in this whole patch. There will be some more tidying as we find new homes for stuff.

This is going to be made into a perennial bed. It needs soil and compost. There is a big white wall that calls for something interesting. I may re-use that old trellis, I don’t know yet. It is rather rickety.
I thought it was going to be very shady, but in the summer the high sun might reach it. I have saved some hostas for this spot, but I’m still thinking about what else will go here. A small statue? Japanese maple? I’ll have to see how I am yet inspired.

The other big summer project is a circular bed around Celena. (We name the figures around the garden – helps to clarify where you are working) The present bed around the willow needs to be cleared, the wheels removed, and then reseeded. I have never been happy with that flower bed. Only half of it was ever seen from the path, and it just seemed oddly placed.
Then we will mark and dig a circular bed around Celena and get it planted.
