Kassia, your gardens are more expansive than mine. Better looking, too.
GE, I was determined to make Death Valley work, it was my first here and never did well. It's along the street so it has to be nice.
These rocks came out of that little bed, no wonder it never flourished. This entire city block used to be a sand & gravel pit. The builder removed the rocks and provided some extra top soil. He was shocked at the pile, he said I could toss them there, lol.
I added lots of compost, too.
