My Flower Gardens

My rabbit cages have wire bottoms. I put sawdust on the floor of the bunny shed. I get a wonderful mixture of sawdust, rabbit droppings and waste hay. I apply it to my flower beds all summer as mulch, it does not burn the plants.  All winter I apply the mulch to my beds.
Fall is here, no frost yet, but most of the flowers are done. Faithful watering, heavy rabit mulch-- so very few weeds........I planted my flower bed so it blooms in stage..so I have flowers all summer. In order of appearance  Iris, Fox Glove, Asian Lilies, Giant Trumpet Lilies, Day Lilies, Hollyhocks, Phlox.






 

 
 
This summer I moved short plants out from in back to a new bed. In their space I planted 20 new Oriental Lily bulbs and 2 more giant Trumpter Lilies. I can't wait to see it!

Till later
Jerry
