For two years I’ve been trying to figure out what I want to do with the disaster that is my front border. Today, I finally got a burst of inspiration. Finally! Every other plan I’ve come up with has left me feeling unsatisfied. Since I never was really taken by an of my plans, I’ve just left the border limping along while I work on the garden itself. I like the idea I came up with today so much that I’ve sown seeds for the plants already. I don’t think I’ll be changing my mind on this plan.
To that end, earlier today I put out 4 containers of echinacea seeds (about 11o seeds)– on top of the shed. It was the only place I felt was safe from the dogs and kids. Of course, on the shed the containers could tempt squirrels. I hope not.
