New Patio Lattice Garden

The lattice Chris built me for my vines this spring is proving to be an interesting growing project.

I wanted to make it look like some kind of cottage garden, with mass plantings of lupins, valaerian, campanula, monkshood, and vines for growing up the lattic (and they are starting to climb).

 

All was pretty good until the drought began at the end of April.  The lupins and campanula were wonderful shows, however, I haven't the heart to take a photo today of the sorry sight.  I can only hope that this is not the case for weather next year because this new garden does have potential. Finally.
