So where did the last month go? Seems summer has finally brought some heat so everything finally kicked into gear.
Start with the front





Now the new bed that I planted on the north side of my driveway.

this has come along pretty well but I am disappointed in the canna bulbs that I got this year. over half haven't come up and the ones that did are very slow and short.
Moving into the back.



Down to the lower patio, the ferns are native and keep coming on their own so I have stopped fighting them and planted some hens & Chicks and sedum in the rocks.

On a trip to HD this weekend I found 4 of these planter with very neglected Ensete Ventricosum for $12 so I brought them home and started rehabbing them, you know watered and gave them sunlight.

and finally my Trachycarpus has not only flowered this year but has also shot up to about 6'-6" this year.
