s1ren's Trellis garden

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

Created as “Buddha Garden” in Spring 2009, I recently moved the Buddha statue and am calling this the “Trellis Garden” now, since I’m fairly sure I won’t be moving the trellis (which is actually a headboard from Ikea – score!)

The plants are the same; though I’ll be adding another Plumbago in the Spring, and maybe some groundcoverness.

I did also recently (October) revamp the entire back patio, and some of the stones from the old surface made it to this garden as a border to help keep weeds out, and to keep me from slipping in the mud when I weed after a rain.
