Angel Garden- upper

 
well today I thought I would show you the upper portion of the Angel garden
this area will be redone
I didn't work on it today though
I need to do a couple of things first
like get a couple of steel posts and a few cinder blocks for the first bed
 

 
I am happy with this bed at the moment
noticed at the moment
I will probably not mess with this bed at all
just saying
as you can tell
you can see a glimpse of the lower portion
the naivety
now what I worked on
I know their is another bed in this area
but I'm not going to show it ya today
 
 
 
What I worked on today
I planted  some daylilies
replanted a couple of roses
replanted a couple of daylilies
I already had the rose Mister Lincoln planted here
I had the daylilies Chorus line and doll house planted

Today I replanted a Pristine rose here
replanted First prize tea rose
replanted daylilies American revolution and Tuscalia Tigeress
planted Brindled beauty iris,
dug immorality iris to plant here( I had an extra one)
also planted vera biglow daylily and my Melinda here
now I need to wait for the potatoes on the left to finish and then
try and get some more daylilies  to plant on that side
 
well I'm tired
so that is all for now
I hope you all

they stated it is lilac haze
