Tiny Gardens

Because our soil is so terrible and so hard to deal with, I have gotten in the habit of making tiny gardens wherever I find a good spot for one. This is one of them near the kitchen patio which is just beginning to look like something, hopefully it will continue to progress as the Summer goes on. It is mostly made up of a couple of inches of soil and mowed down weeds, covered with newspaper and then mulch. The mint just grows and I have used containers planted with geraniums, miniature roses, foliage plants and herbs to fill in. To the right [not shown here] is an old square metal tub, painted blue where our mosquito control lives...his name of course is "Froggy".
