Here are pictures of my flower bed that is along the fence to the pasture. In this second picture is a Butterfly Bush that we brought back from our trip to Knoxville, TN. I was so happy to see it come back this spring. The plant to the left of it is a Catmint that I just moved there this spring. I hope I didn't put it too close to the BB.
I have transplanted different flowers to this long bed but as you can see, I have lots of room to add more. I love Silver Mound. I just added this one this spring. The tall plant on the right/left is a NOID yellow Iris. I may have to move it cause it is getting so tall. I love the globe thistle but I make sure I remove the seed pods before they open. I don't want it to spread.
Newly planted Asiatic Lily and a newly planted Daylily to the right of the globe thistle. It will take them a few years to fill in.
Not sure but I think this might be a Salvia. I think it might need to be divided. Any thoughts?
As soon as I saw this art looking thing, I knew I had to have it to put in my flower bed. I think it was $3 at a yard sale.
This tall flower is a Balloon Flower. It is really spreading and is growing so tall. I have transplanted parts of this flower to other areas. The Pansies self sow every year and keep moving further down the bed. I love them so they can do whatever they want.
Asiatic Lily. I added some Iris and a few other plants to the second picture. Will have to wait till next year to see if they get established.
I have annuals in these tires but they haven't filled in yet. Guess they may need more watering than I have been providing. The plant in the container by the trellis is 4 0`clocks, I think, that I grew from seed. I am hoping they bloom so I can determine if that is what they are.
Possibly 4 0`clocks. I have never grown these before. Can't wait to see if I can get a bloom or two.
Well, that is pretty much my Pasture bed for now. I am adding to it but it is not ready to be photographed yet. I need to add many more plants to the open areas in this long bed which will take time.
