With the garlic out, we decided to finally plant the flowers we had planned for this year. (The battle with the squirrels was just too much, so we skipped the veggies this year. Kept the mint for salads and cocktails though!)
The climbing vines are morning glory and jasmine. The morning glory is supposed to be a “fast climber” but only wants to go up; we’re having a hard time getting it to go out wide. The jasmine is a “moderate climber” and did really well after we tied a few branches wider with twist ties. Strangely enough, the blooms really went crazy after we tied the branches. Not sure what happened there, but who’s complaining? It smells amazing.
