We've been weeding, and weeding, and weeding some more. This week it was the front flower bed, again, for the 5th time this season. We didn't have enough in the landscaping budget to put too many perennials in the front bed this spring so we filled it with sunflowers and gourds to help cover some of the bare areas. So far that plan is working out pretty nicely.
Here is an overview of what it looks like from the house looking towards the road.
Here is what this same section looked like just 1 month ago...
The next few pictures are the rest of the front flower bed sections.
Here are some close ups of our favorite sunflowers. They are so cheerful and fun!
Aren't they beautiful? The honey bees sure like them!
Here are some of the gourd selection we ended up with. They are pretty fun and they will make great fall decor additions!
That is the progress on the front flower bed so far this year. I like the looks of it so far, I will enjoy adding in some shrubs, evergreens, and more perennials next spring, but for now this was a fun way to fill up the larger spaces.
