Parnisp and pansies

Check out these gorgeous parsnips from Daniels veggie garden. They are roasting as I type... Yum!


And here's a shot of Mr. Pansy. He loves the green chair, and who can blame him? He looks so cute in it - especially in the sunshine.

Finally got something accomplished!

I have been planning this redesign for two years and finally got it done. The Kleinsorge iris bed needed to be bumped out to make room for a lilac ('Sensation') that will add some much needed vertical interest, as well as shade, to the front of the house. Can't wait to see it filled in. this also makes room to add steps to the end of the porch so we can put rails across the front of it.



I got all the Kleinsorge irises that were in need of dividing split up and moved about to better show them off. I'll add some annuals in the spring to add longer seasonal interest to the bed. I'd intended to add some other plants but had som many irises I didn't have room this year. Once the bed across the path from ths one is done there will be more room for other things.
