My first recurrent bed was a 3′ X 24′ raise bottom in 2001 . I have bring newfangled seam every year since .

“ Most of the yard is part shade … until late . In May 2011 two large pine tree blew over in my backyard and in April 2012 my new neighbor select to write out all eleven grandiloquent pines in her pace ; she had safety concerns .

“ horticulture in 2012 brought several more challenges ; too many chipmunks and bunny ( the previous neighbor had a cat great at hunt ) , tree remotion abused my west side yard , and a very raging , ironic , cheery summer for my tone loving plant . I started move plant in the fall and have many more to move this spring . So I ’m sharing photos of my “ quondam ” garden beds when they were part subtlety . ”
