My yard and garden rooms have continued to change and evolve over the past 4 years. I would love to see other's changes here on this thread, too! I know many of you have also added more to your yard!
My white wooden arbor needs repainting and the garden areas look like a jungle now. I am past the neat and quaint garden areas of 4 years ago.
This year I had record numbers of butterflies. And this Winter I currently have 3 adult male Ruby-throated hummingbirds that have settled in to over-winter in different areas of my yard. As well as Painted Buntings, Palm Warblers, Cardinals, Bluejays, Doves, Yellow Rumped Warblers, and more still arriving.... My garden areas/rooms have grown and attracted more and more wildlife. It's all good!!!!
This is the front yard. I had to have the septic drain field replaced this year. In doing so, my favorite tree had to be removed. It made me sick !
So afterwards I took advantage of the barren area to extend the front garden bed further out into the front yard. I have since added a daylily border and I have moved the small resin waterfall to the front bed recently. This is how that front bed looked this year. Butterflies and hummingbirds are attracted there. Mission accomplished!
