Our palette garden

Cultivators Design and landscape loves to re-use things and this is our version of the palette garden. We also think these would make great herb gardens or succulent gardens too!

    farm. Rhonda does not pick up the rocks to improve her garden. She is getting them out of the way of planters in the spring and combines at harvest time. Most farms that are located in an area near where the glaciers began to recede will forever find rocks in their fields. Near us is a Moraine State Park. According to the dictionary a moraine is a mass of rocks and sediment carried down and deposited by a glacier, typically as ridges at its edges or extremity. We also have glacial till Road nearby. Farmers are not too fond of stones and rocks. It is so great to see such a beautiful use for them.

Gardening: Mystery beauty

What is this plant? My husband attended a banquet today and these were used for the decoration. Apparently the sponsors didn't want them back because he came home with 3 of them. I love the color and lushness. Is it Kalanchoe?

    don't seem to mind that I don't have a lot of light there. But, I am sure being a succulent that it probably would love to be in the sunshine.
