Just a couple more...

Most of the pictures I just posted were taken earlier in the season, before everything grew up and hid the basics. This is from two weeks ago, the last time I was there. Finally I moved the blue iris to its new bed, getting plenty of sun but out of direct view. Eventually it will be re-shaped to join the bed in front of the dwarf lilac beyond, and the whole thing will be edged with nepeta. This one is Walker's Low. The opening for the mower is narrow, so I can't wrap the bed around the corner. But the ferns are beginning to fill in again between the rocks, they got zapped along with everything else, but not completely eliminated, and that will soften it.
