CSchwartz's Summer 2009 garden

Garden Type: Backyard | Sun: Full Sun | Soil: Combination I'm Organic!

This is my summer garden for 2009. I have not been able to work on it as much as previous years since I am taking classes this summer and working.
I don’t have to do too much work anymore since I have plenty of perennials that do all the work for me. I only need to do some basic maintenance and harvesting and the rest of the time I can just rest and look at all the wonderful flowers and wildlife that comes to my garden!
My cats especially enjoy the garden, and I try to make it fun for them as well by making them little caves to hide in and yummy grass to nibble on.
