The Garden, Year #6



The Chinese Rhubarb was clawing its way the sky so I gave it a haircut. Lo and behold,tucked away behind that monster was a Clematis I planted last year and forgot about.

The head observing sideways belonged to a perfectly nice statue that didn't survive a wind storm.

Son #3 made me the lattice to hide the clothes dryer and sons #2and 5 made the raised bed that contains the mighty rhubarb.

It gives the small yard an interesting element so that the eye doesn't just sweep up and over in the bat of an eyelash.

Eventually the Clematis and Virginia Creeper will cover both sides of the lattice to form its own art display.

Unless the Chinese Rhubarb consumes it all.
