In the three years that we have had our house I have greatly increased the flower beds. We went from the standard narrow bed lining the walkway that was only one geranium deep to beds that are four and five times as deep in some areas. I also went from a small circle island to a large oval island in the center of the lawn. In addition, I created two completely new beds last year that bracket the bottom of our driveway.

Its been a lot of work, and I have really enjoyed it, but now it is time to take a look at the scale and make some serious changes.

I have plants that are too tall lining the walkway. I have plants that sprawl over the walkway. They look beautiful until it rains - then everything and everyone that wants to use the walkway is soaked. So in the next few weeks, I am going to be rearranging everything, but I thought I would post some pictures first of what it looks like now.

This is the bottom of the walkway.
