Started a new project ....yeah again :)
Imagined my backyard a certain way and set out 'really small' in getting there. Its probably a eye sore now but hopefully in a few months, it will be the start of my backyard Oasis :)
The site I attacked today is the corner of my backyard.First covered the area with lots of newspapers which will hopefull take care of the weeds.The area has a little slope, so will raise it with some topsoil and compost. I had put some Shasta Daisy there earlier which seems to have established. Found a nice plant (trying to find the name of this one) growing among the 'Lily of the Valley' in the backyard, which I brought and put in a contianer. This covers a part of the corner. Very excited yet again to explore the possibilities. Stay tuned for updates :)

Figured out from my GardenStew freinds that the mystery plant I found in the backyard is actually a FoxGlove. Wondering what color the flowers will be.

Adding picture of Foxglove. Not anything else to add - the caladium were barely there. So tiny and unimpressive.
Yay for the fixglove! I love Shasta daisy.
