April's garden at The Red Clover Keep

Goodness gracious, things really are coming along here. I've been out in the yard non-stop and I feel like I've made a lot of progress on our landscaping and such...

Psych!! That is not our yard. That is our neighbor's yard. It's been such a rainy month with only a day or two here and there of sunshine, that I've neglected our property pretty badly. It would be so much easier if I just paid someone to come tend our yard. *cough* Ah well. It is what it is.

Thankfully we have lots of plants that thrive with very little care and attention. I have to say, I WILL be planting more ornamental grasses out front. This one has orange tips and is absolutely HUGE now even though I have done next to nothing to it since putting it in the ground. That is my kind of plant.

I've also noticed that the succulents I transplanted onto the back hill are doing quite nicely. The big one in the center is the one I transplanted and all of these sweet little babies just started sprouting off of it unexpectedly. I'm going to have to put more of these in this spot, because the effect is quite neat. I really didn't think that these would do well in our mild and soggy climate, but they seem to be digging it.

Oh hi squirrelfran! I'm so happy to see that you've been visiting us with your fluffy tail and sweet cheeks! You are so cute, but can you please stop stealing sunflower seeds from the bird feeder? Those are not for you.

You heard me.
