WooHOO! Just had a delightfully productive trip to the local garden center-- my first!!!-- where Master Gardener Judy scoped out my overall plan, and helped me buy mixed daffodils for that trench in front. Tomorrow they go IN THE GROUND! So much advice!

Daffs and grape hyacinth-- an old favorite color combo. Perennials to add there at the spring and fall visits. Something low and spreading.... maybe Vinca with......? To coordinate with annuals spilling out of white wishing well...?

Today, prepping the area to back the car to the trench to fill the cleft the easy way, right off the hatchback's deck.

More staging, below. Note to self: Swan Ramona holds 1 large and 2 small pots. More contrast IN the swan next time to use less backdrop material. (Smalls/flats also in front of and around her.)
