When I moved into this house, the grounds were pretty much bare with construction grade soil. Well, look what a few years can do... and a little work and a pandemic. I've propagated lots of the plants from singles and the mango tree was started from seed. Same for the flor de mayo, now quite large, started from cuttings.
The front and side plots were empty with terrible soil. This is the front now...
and here's the side kitchen garden.
I've learned which plants can survive the long hot dry spells and love that they continue to spread and fill all the empty spaces. Those ornamental grasses all came from a single plant and they continues to spread.
And some plants have gotten quite large and reached for the sky.
And, of course, there's a big heart in every garden, right?
Obviously, the rains have finally come and everyone's happy.

The transformation is truly wonderful. Always love reading your blog and basking in the beauty of your photography.
Every day, I am out in the garden just studying and enjoying what it teaches me. Like my music, it is endless....
