A Flower a Day for February .

One spring we noticed we didn't really have any color in the back yard, so we built a garden in the corner. Conceptually this one's a garden for tall annuals--usually Cleome, sometimes Verbena, occasionally Glads. The annuals are anchored by Lilies, Daylilies, and Butterfly Weed--and a (new last summer) Sedum at dead center. And we fill things in with some smaller annuals; since last summer's Dianthus survived the winter, we're repeating. Just planted the Cleome, so we'll have some color soon. We've also some holdover Verbena and perhaps some Glads. Final note: From a maintenance perspective, this garden's frustrating. We're perpetually fighting crab grass.
