    I had many starts, stops, mistakes, made soil errors, replanted. Wondered if it was worth all the effort last spring.

    It was (worth it). I am so enjoying the flowers now. I planted this bed three different times before and every one was a failure. Finally...results.

    Gorgeous garden. I hope mine looks like that some day. Is that a Texas Star Hibiscus I see? Mine is blooming right now (red one) and it is so beautiful. I am so glad I bought that one. Nothing else is blooming but that one is. I bet it is great driving up in the driveway and seeing that every day. Great job and I am glad it finally worked out for you.

    That is very pretty, may I ask what kind of grass you are growing there?

    Love the contrast between the purple grass and blackeyed susans. So glad all your hard work finally paid off.
