The Lessons

At this point, I began to learn a few more lessons. Plants and grass don’t always mix. The grass has a massive root system that depletes the nutrients which the flowers need. SO I created a border after removing the grass from the flower bed section.

I also went full speed into container garden.Bottle of choice, iCool.  Seeds were from HiPro. Unfortunately they were massively disappointing, I have only I morning glory plant to show for it.
