Name: Michele Roth N.E. Indiana - Zone 5b, and F (Zone 9b) I'm always on my way out the door..
It's okay William, since then I think I've learned how to handle it. Now all the new beds go up first. The last one I did is more or less permanently raised about two feet, center (half that for the lilies), with log pathways for access. It's working fabulously!
In this bed, the lilies are leaning away from the shrubs, but toward the main viewing areas. It's different, but I really like it!
