I love looking back and seeing how much it has progressed, since when I'm in the garden I usually just see how much work I feel I have to go to get things how I want. It will probably look totally different in a couple years. :)Indiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14004102653896371835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770960028868336157.post-16305321217759079932017-05-24T13:36:15.453-04:002017-05-24T13:36:15.453-04:00That's too bad, as it's a gorgeous plant i...That's too bad, as it's a gorgeous plant in person.

I've done a base layer of sand for projects that have to be more level, like the retaining wall and a small patio we built at our last house. Way too much work to do that for stepping stones, where I don't care as much if they are level or not!Indiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14004102653896371835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770960028868336157.post-72007908398183422272017-05-24T13:31:52.902-04:002017-05-24T13:31:52.902-04:00I have a different, more delicate type of Bleeding...I have a different, more delicate type of Bleeding Heart, but the Old-fashioned one is still my favorite!

That foam flower caught my eye so I looked it up.

And you...Bravo! The shade garden is looking great.<br /><br />And you're making me feel guilty for postponing a stepping-stone project.<br /><br />(I've actually never tried installing stepping stones before. Was it hard work? Did you install a base layer of sand or just dig out some dirt and heave in the stones?)Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07402416428574401646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770960028868336157.post-11718333632343854522017-05-23T08:53:14.029-04:002017-05-23T08:53:14.029-04:00Hi Indie,

You put a lot of thought and sweat into this spot and it's beautiful. <br />When you mentioned loving Bleeding Hearts since seeing them in your grandmother's garden it made me think of how our love flowers is formed by our childhood experiences. My love of Hydrangeas stems from sitting under one with my grandmother....<br />Thanks for sharing. That was fun!Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16914703548887252991noreply@blogger.com
