I just wanted to post a few updates from my gardens. All my plants are doing really well.

(my first blossom on the Black eyed Susan's!

There are over a dozen healthy roses blooming on this one in this picture! (sorry about the dead ones, they were done blooming)

I really love gardening and I hope to get to fun new plants in the gardens again next year. Some changes I will make to the garden before next spring will be:

1) pull out all the plants and layer a sheet of the stuff that keeps the weeds out.

2) make it a little bigger so that I don't have to plant the plants so close to the edge of the grass.

3) I want to add a rock/stone border to make it easier on John when he mows.

I love the experiment of it all.
