I'm amazed at how much our garden has grown and filled in since it was first planted in the spring of 2024. We now have a very lush planting alive with bees and other pollinators, as well as an abundance of flowers providing changing colors throughout the season.
Our garden designer, John Pohl of Folly Afield, did an amazing job of planning and installing the garden last year. He continues to tweak the design, as well as offering ongoing weeding help as the garden gets established.
Here are some before and after photos showing how much the garden has changed since July 2024 when I last posted photos.
