We built a new fence to block off the SFG area:
The main SFG is to the right. I want to move the clothesline and use the other side as well, but until then I'll just add a few things.
The gate for the new fence was once in the arch. Here is the arch now:
That rose is a "Joseph's Coat" and it's covered with buds! I can't wait to see it in full bloom, but for now here is a closeup:
On the right side of the arch, in the herb garden, there is a maypop vine (everything in the herb garden produces something edible). Turns out it's a host plant for the Gulf Fritillary caterpillar and they tore it up last year! But apparently it's coming back:
On the end of the SFG box we put in some cucumbers:
For the experimental plastic garden box we (thanks, hubby!) made a tomato cage:
And some of the flowers for this week:
I have two of these; they were here when we moved in. They grow very tall - should be visible over the fence pretty soon. I don't know what kind they are. Dark red, and fragrant.
The "rose corner"The vinca vine doesn't bloom often and it's not showy, but I like it.
And finally, the zebra "cactus" that lives in my sunroom. I have collected zebra items through the years (not so much now that I'm in declutter mode) and bought this on a whim.
The long spike has an interesting little flower:
