YEAR 3 - What a Difference!

I am entering the third full summer at my new home in Winnipeg and what a difference it makes as a perennial gardener. There is undeniably much more happening even without my help, and while I have been busy in the gardens I have been making minor adjustments compared to the work required in the previous two years.
Herons wading through purple German Iris. 
Suzie enjoying the sun and the scent of blooming Jacob's Ladder.
The Sedum in the rock garden is back and blooming like never before.
Mulch in the Sun Garden is clearly helping keep the weeds at bay. 
The Sun Garden this year will be dramatically different from previous years with the addition of Allium, Coneflower, tomatoes & peppers, Pansies & Marigolds, Karl Forrester & some type of Blood grass, Scabiosa, and a whole lot of hardy geranium and Chives along the border.
