Garden Bed #21

Annual bed

Bed #21

Annual bed that planted itself this year with left-over strawberries & moss rose. The grandkids & I enjoyed picking & eating the berries for breakfast one morning.

Hosta seedling bed

"One thing is for sure - the garden is ever-changing"

"Necessity is the Mother of Invention"

I grow hosta babies from seed just for fun during the cold winter months. When spring comes I move them outdoors in their little pots. If they survive until late summer, I either give them away, donate them to my local garden club's fund raising auctions, or try to find space to plant them to see what they will be like next year.

Bed #21 was available as annuals are expendable if it is a choice between them & hostas. A few strawberry plants still remain in the bed as do moss rose, cause once you have moss rose, you always have moss rose. Mine came from my daughter's garden debris she brought out from town to add to our compost pile several years ago. It pops up in lots of sunny, dry spots where others wouldn't survive.

See the Annuals page.

Girls just want to have fun!

Green Hosta Seedlings

Marlys' All Green Hosta Seedlings - 2007

Hosta Seedlings

Oh, wait, this little seedling isn't just plain green! And the leaves are so thick, almost rubbery. I better keep an eye on this one. And maybe, even find it a better home, out of so much afternoon sun.

It may be an OP (open pollinated) 'Korean Snow' sdlg in its second year. That means next year, #3 will be leap year. We'll see what it looks like then. Remember, it's just for fun!
