re-purpose
As some of you may know, after a short hiatus, I am again pursuing my passion. With that said, I will now have more time to blog, garden, and design-hopefully in that order. Last week on a day off, I began my fall clean up. I pulled some weeds, spread some mulch, removed some spent annuals, and started to look around with a fresh eye. My begonias and geraniums, while still producing flowers had started to look a little leggy. My ferns that I had containerized still looked good but were ready to move to a new location with a little more room. Ivy-enough said. The half barrel that had grown lettuce and other vegetables sat empty as well as my window boxes. By combining, ivy, ajuga, an autumn fern and an Encore azalea that didn't yet have a home, I have a new container worthy of mentioning. I think one of the principles of gardening I most practice and enjoy is moving things around. It's okay to adjust a plan-sometimes the most aesthetically pleasing results from "happy accidents."
