Bed B 2018

There's another bed--well, kinda a bed--on the East Side.  I call it Bed B--imaginative, eh?  It sits between one of the hawthorn that refuse to bloom and a flowering plum.  The area tends toward wetness so that has factored in to what I plant there.  In May a huge wild blue indigo blooms followed by a monstrous bunch of yellow flag iris and a small dab of blue flag iris.  In June, there is a lovely Japanese iris in here and some swamp milkweed.  Finally, in August sneezeweed appears   No, it doesn't make you sneeze.  If I had known the yellow flag iris was such a spreader, I wouldn't have put it here.  Instead, I would have put it by the pond.  Some day I will have to try to dig it all up and do just that.  It is, however, a bear to dig up.  Huge roots.  If I can ever get it moved, then I'll put a bunker bed here with all the other stuff in it.  Someday.
