My cats keep my busy all year round, but come spring, I just can't wait to get out into the garden. I had a pretty sad looking garden until about three years ago, when I had a friend plan a perennial garden for me. There is some stuff in there that I had already planted, or was here when I moved in 10 years ago, but most of it is new. Its a labour of love, and this week the last of the plantings on our garden design went in.
Of course, now I am looking for new places to plant. The most exciting part of the garden was the addition of two raised beds, which were not on the plan. I have new neighbours who rent the attic apartment above mine, and they are avid gardeners. He built the raised beds, and the three of us have been lurking at garden centres to fill them up.
You can see the results here.

And the most notable feature, of course, is the large patch of cat nip growing right in the middle of the front bed.
