Projects, Pavers, Pickets, and Perennials

Sweet peas are tough. I've never had any luck with them. Those rustic trellises are cool, though! Did you make them yourself?

There's still hope for that little cabbage plant if you get some Bt on it quick.

No I didn't make the trellises'. They were given to me by a customer when they moved. That's where I got the paving stone from also. I did make a couple of trellises from pine saplings this spring but they are much more rustic and free form.

I've never had as much difficulty with sweet peas as I have this year.

@Carol Dee , did you have some sort of accident?

No accident, out patient surgery for hernia repair. Feeling good. Just being careful, I do not want to do that again.

Thistle your worst beds look better then my best beds !!!!!! I have been blaming the landscaper for weedwacking all my clematis wondering now if its grasshoppers. Carol hope you feel better.

Thistle, those spaces still look good. I planted about 100 sweet peas and have gotten 3 flowers which I gave to Olivia. During our outdoor time when I am deadheading, she is always pulling stuff out of the can.
