Update on my butterfly garde.
I removed a lot of the grass to outline a sitting area and started planting.
Butterfly and rose bushes and large saucer hibiscus.
At a different angle
I love love love Purple Fountain grass! that went on the corner so it would be the first thing you see coming up the road.
I then added a gardenia bush at the walkway for a nice aroma.
I added a bird bath of course and anxiously awaited the butterflies and hummingbirds!
I wasn't let down!
After a short time it was all blooming so beautifully!
Dahlias
Purple fountain grass!
And while I am working on it our kitty likes lay on the bench and watch!
