Bare Back Yard - March 2005

My back yard had a lovely green carpet
of grass but that is not what I wanted.  I just
had to have a huge flower bed in the middle
of the yard.  You see, I had in my mind that
a cottage garden would be so, so easy, because it just looked like it took care of itself.  Everything I had read said, NO~! Cottage gardens take effort to make them look so effortless.  I found out the hard way, as you shall see in future posts..... stay tuned.
