My clematis is climbing and this year looks to be the best so far at the new house. After a problem last year with trellises breaking loose in spring storms, this year looks to be the first year my deck will be covered in vines and flowers.
My newly installed garden bench is also surrounded by clematis vine.
The garden is taking hold. Onions, lettuce, radishes, peppers, tomatoes, and peas are all greening up.
The cherry tree we planted a while back flowered and now is getting its burgundy leaves.
The two river birch we planted have taken hold and leafed out too.
A new rose hedge I put in from bare root is getting green. At full height these Robin Hood Roses should be around 6 feet of red wonder.
One of many Rose of Sharon I planted last year is leafing out. This one has been cut back as I prepare to grow it into a tree form over the next few years.
The silver mounds I planted last year came back. They are a stunning plant. Unfortunately, the flowers I planted with them didn't survive our arctic winter blast, so I'll have to fill in with annuals.
Our tulips were a big suprise this year with several new colors and varieties.
More to come.
