QuirkyK's Frontyard garden

Garden Type: Frontyard | Sun: Full Sun | Soil: Clay

For now it is a work in progress! We just bought the house last summer, so needless to say funds for a spring cleaning were limited. That and we wanted to see what was out there already. You know those little guys that pop up when unexpected :) I have ideas out the ying yang but haven’t done much toward them yet. The house siding has a slight pink hue to it so I’m going to keep the front garden in the pinks, purples, and whites color pallet.

    I know what you mean about finding things here and there. We just bought our house this past winter and all sorts of stuff are coming up. My partner even found some sweet poison ivy vines the other day. His legs are not happy about that.;/
