  • I put in this perennial bed last year to frame each side of my driveway and I’m ecstatic about how it looks! If you want to copy it, here’s the recipe:
    - Cat’s Pajamas nepeta
    - Perennial Millennium allium
    - Globemaster allium
    - CrazyBlue Russian sage

    Beautiful! I have done something like this around my house with different variety. It's gorgeous, I am still working on it after 14 years! My neighbors admire my arrangement when they take a walk. They ask me questions when they see my working in my flowers. It such a beauty for everyone. A gift of life and love.

    I've planted lavender to see if they'd be rabbit resistant (my yard is crawling with them) and to see if they'd protect my fruit trees from pests. That with chamomile. So we'll see! Fingers crossed!

    • @waj6845
      @waj6845 Před rokem

      Lavender is definitely a rabbit deterrent. I have three planted in a wide triangle around a chubby bed of tulips (which rabbits love). Haven't lost a single bulb to rabbits or squirrels. Can't say whether tree fruits would be safe though. The fruit might just be too tempting to the squirrels.

    A rhododendron would be great as well. They're absolutely spectacular when they bloom. I have a crazy pink one, but you could've gone for a blue or purple one for your color display. They're an early bloomer too, so they pack an incredible punch before the rest comes to maturity.

  • @erosinable
    @erosinable Před rokem

    I’d be remiss if I didn’t suggest some native plants in there. The pollinators May live those plants, but their caterpillars almost certainly can’t eat the leaf tissue, so it’s very limited ecological benefit. Still pretty though :)

    How about planting some straight species native plants indigenous to Iowa? There are lots that aren't too big and are critical to the preservation of the species and attracting native pollinators!

  • @aundreaorrBeyondBeauty

    Love your place and your taste very spot on with mine I’d say, infact may I pleeeeeeeease ask where did you purchase those limestone risers? I believe they are limestone anyway, they are beautiful and I’ve been looking for something just like that perfect size and everything, is that 12”x12” or is it 18”? Curious please and thank you for sharing!

    • @WyseGuide
      @WyseGuide  Před 15 dny

      They were a Facebook Marketplace find! You're correct though, they are limestone and I believe they're closer to 12"x12" than 18", if I remember correctly. Limestone is common in Iowa, with most quarries offering them. If I were you, I would check with local landscapers or quarries, sometimes they can help you find what you're looking for.
