Kelsey Dwarf Dogwood (Cornus sericea 'Kelseyi') was already here when we moved in and it took me a while to identify it. Despite what I've heard, it grows in full sun in a very dry location. |
Just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour garden is so lush for being so young. I love the big circular arbor at the top of the stairs. I must have missed the post about it's installation??. Worthy of a post to me. I can't wait to see what you plant on it. Here's to another great gardening year.
ReplyDeleteI also love looking back and seeing how the garden has evolved. The front border picture is a favorite of my, and I remember it from when you originally posted it; a spectacular moment in time when everything was just perfect!
