    Fantastic! Those are going to have so many beautiful flowers!

    That braided decorative grass is cool - way cooler than the regular grass that comes up in my flowerbeds! 😁

    But what is that short purple and white guy between the grasses, almost dead-center? 'Cause it looks nice too, but it’s hidden away! Lol

      Thanks!

      The “grass” is Braided willows, the one isn’t doing so hot. They are both new to that bed this year. The lilies are the only returning ones in this bed. I’ve tried and failed with hydrangeas twice.

      Lupins! Bought from hd this as well and I scatter planted some new seeds with it. Yeah stuff kinda Exploded around it hahah. I can’t recall the expected height, but shouldn’t be buried if it returns next year.

      I also got split the lilies this year for health I’m pretty sure.

      Planted just before this picture May 31

        Oh that’s even cooler than decorative grass! The whole bed looks great, man. The scatter planting will be fun, too! Now I know that I like lupins 😁 thanks!

        I’m gonna have to do some splitting and replanting this fall, too. The flowers did much better than expected after just one year - lol
