Serendib Garden

I’m trying a mix of hostas, but have just added this dramatic purple heuchera. I like it. I think a few more purple-ish heucheras will end up here in a bit.

Here, a collection of hostas, include Neptune (far left upper corner) and Vulcan (blue-is wavy leaves, just in from bottom left). The unusual bit here is the native trillium, with a large yellow flower.

Really bad. I basically have to find a way to occupy myself that’s really immersive, like a good video game, or I start getting anxious about all the work I should be doing. I probably need to go talk to my therapist about my increasingly workaholic tendencies sometime soon. But anyway, here are some pictures

The greenhouse is nicely filled up with seedlings, which I’ll start planting out soon, in theory. I’ve had a tough time keeping up with watering the last busy month, but they’ve mostly survived my neglect. Mostly. It’s really fun having a little greenhouse, though — totally worth the $60 or so investment.

These two robins kept fighting over seeds — or more accurately — the bigger one kept squawking at the other and running them off. There are plenty of seeds in my garden to go around, guys!

“Granny’s bonnet” style of columbine. I like how the blur came out on this photo, with the taller columbine in the background.
