Just added some companion flowers and plants into the yard and garden this past few days. Here are some images of our wine barrel flower beds.
The empty spaces are filled with seeds that should sprout in a week or so. I have herbs in the smaller pots next to the wine barrels. You may also notice a cape honeysuckle in-between the wine barrel and the edge of our raised garden bed in the top image. The cape honeysuckle should grow tall and provide both shade for the garden as well as beautiful orange flowers to attract the great hummingbirds!
Follow along with me as I create and maintain organic raised garden beds and landscape in the extreme and unforgiving Arizona desert! Learn, share and ask questions. Together this garden blog will provide valuable knowledge of working organic principals to create your own mini ecosystem. Let's make the garden the first place you want to go and the last place you want to leave!
