This is what we had before we left on vacation. I liked it, but wished I'd set the tall amaranth closer together.

When we returned from a week away they were twice as tall, and the green sweet potato vine had swallowed up the smaller plants down front.

Pulled the amaranth yesterday morning and trimmed back the sweet potato vine. The calendula clumps had flopped forward, so they got a thinning and trimming as well. Added a few new items and this is what it looks like today. Big Grin

Love, love, love how well everything is growing in it!

Now, if I can just keep that vine in line! Hilarious!
