new rock garden

18 years ago

This weekend I tackled a new project. There are several boulders piled up in my backyard, framed with big ferns. I dug out the rock fragements and roots to create a perennial garden of hostas and astilbes. The link below shows several pictures of the garden. Thank goodness for ibuprofen!

Here is a link that might be useful: my rock garden

Very nice already and will be even nicer when they fill in. I'm glad you could envision what could be there.
