Today we moved three bushes to different locations to prevent overcrowding and improve garden airflow. We also trimmed some to encourage bushes to "bush out" rather than grow in height. Several of the irises were divided and moved to other locations in the garden for aesthetics. While the garden has come far in the three weeks we have worked on it, there is still much to be done. Next week we may even get to lay down the mulch we bought.
You can see where the plants were removed or moved around the garden. Wow, the moves have made an impact on the garden's appearance. Remember to water transplants well to establish root growth and settle the plant firmly in the spot.
On the far side of the garden, we put some irises and daisies along the drain zone. This fall we may add mums or nasturtium to make this a multi-season garden.
