Front yard 2013


The front yard is in pretty good shape this spring. I tried planting snap dragons last fall, and they've done really well so far! They are pink and yellow and all of them are loving the front at the moment. It's something I will definitely repeat since it gives such an early color to the front.


You can see the front door- I really like the blue. I'm also trying to grow lemongrass next to the door to keep those mosquitoes away. Last year with G being old enough to want to play outdoors we really struggled to keep him (and us) from getting bitten all the time, so I've made it my mission this year to be inhospitable to the little creatures.


Grass has been fertilized and gardens have been mulched. I planted a bunch of daffodil bulbs, but they seem to just be coming up which is probably a little late so we might not get any flowers from them this year.
