Spring Project

Bird bath surrounded by flowers. Love to sit and watch the birds fight over it....especially the Robins

Plants surrounding the bird bath;
Salvia
Dianthus
Dusty Miller
Mums
Sun Impatiens
Verbena-which I thought was dead and threw them under the shepherd pole in the back and they took off and fooled me!

On each side of the shepherd hook that hold 2 hanging baskets and humming bird feeders is Mammoth elephant ears transplanted from the front yard ....boy do the multiply! Each of the eight I planted (4 on each side) has survived. Can't wait to see them get huge! Not sure how it's going to look but we will see ;)
I dug up over 40 of those Mammoth elephant ears and gave them to friends. I still have plenty in the front flower bed.

In pic#3 under the tree in the far back of photo sits a bench with 2 flower pots one on each side. There is three bird feeder's there two hang from tree and one on a plant pole. I sit on the back deck and watch the birds and squirrels from a far. They have a blast back there. The squirrels have taken over the bench...sit there like the own it! :)

Pic#4 rocks I collected while on a ATV weekend trip surround solar lights that are on each side of the front steps. A lazy fat toad sitting on the handle to the garage waiting for bugs. He sit's there at night and early morning because the light above the garage door attracts bugs. He lives under a Hosta in the flower bed which is only about 3 to 4 ft from the garage door.
