Flower Gardens

My parents were here last weekend and really helped improve our sad, weed infested flower beds. The p's are master gardeners and have amazing gardens in Indiana. They showed up with a jungle in tow in their Toyota. We also visited a couple nurseries and purchased several perennials to spruce things up as well. Here are a few shots of 2 of our 4 flower beds. My no means do these pictures do them justice. They look much prettier, brighter, and colorful in real life.

The hosta in the back was one of a couple giants brought from IN.

Sadly, since the massive planting, several of the shade plants (hostas, coralbells, Salomon's seal, and bee balm) have been munches/leveled by the deer. More on that soon.....
