oval bed, to be mountain garden, but pollinators would appreciate that one more. Lemon mint, hyssop, yarrow, sunchokes, borrage, blue and pink salvia, lots and lots of lemon mint and range cone flowers (rudebeckia), it volunteered, so it was sort of low risk in the dead heat 90/f+ to 100...


Keyhole garden: scarlet beans, 2 types of cucumber, pumpkins, winter squash (delicata)
 lupine and white cone flower as polinators
 and hollyhocks at the back... now I wonder if I've got bianual plant by misstake...

 Orange day lily at orchard, was a saved fee plant

 Spiral bed has lots more in it. a variety...

top: liatris and crocosmia lucifer
 several berry bushes: currant and servieberry.
corsian violet, beans, salvia, yarrow, Corsican viola
 banana squash, currant, borrage
 echinacea, torch lily (kniphobia), 3 types of hyssop, rudebeckia (under the box, stresses by the heat badly)

2 Beds in severe need if good old bindweed fight are not shown... as they need some good old weeding. Weeds took off like a storm this year.
