Rain Garden


So far, so good. I still need soem more plants and about a ton more wood chips. Whew! 3 inches deep on that one. I've been following the Blue Thumb Guide for my garden. I finally got some pix, but somehow I am having problems w/ uploading them. Could be I'm just drastically dirt bound as opposed to electriciy bound.

why anyone would spend any time indoors on such beautiful days is beyond me.

As soon as I figure out how to fix the pix problem, I'll post them.

Anyone esle rain gardening?

Peace
Sif

Well I tried it out in a corner by our gate with no luck. I had thought more water stood there than really did it seems so I guess I won't be able to us that spot. I might try again in another area. How is yours doing?

If we'd get any more than a half inch of rain at a time....

It was really wet in May and early June, but since the second week of June there just has been nearly no rain up here. There are also modifications needing to be made in current water run off situations further up the row of town houses. This is going to be a most of the summer project.

By next week I will probably have my brain wrapped around the pix problem and be able to either post pix or link up to where they are..

peace
Renee
