Mock Orange and Sunflowers

I planted some bulbs last fall and have been eagerly waiting their arrival. Here are some pictures of the ones that have popped up so far. (I forgot to turn macro on for the second shot, so I'll have to try again.) They are a happy sight! I really like the yellow crocus with the Dragon's Blood sedum. I look forward to seeing the next group of bulbs pop up.

We spent the weekend trench edging our hedge bed per this tutorial from Funky Junk Interiors. Fabulous results. I will have to take a picture to share once I finish weeding! We also added dirt to all our garden boxes to get them ready for planting. Our next task is to clear the children's garden of rocks and the old weed block fabric the previous owners put down.

I have so many projects I want to work on, but a limited amount of money to spend on them and a baby due to arrive this summer so our focus will be doing better with what we already have. The hedge bed is already better than ever, the children's garden I know will be great, and I plan to plant and eat from our garden all summer long. Right now we are just waiting for our asparagus to show up so we can start!

What do you have planned for your garden this year?
