Remember my overgrown rock wall? Two years later...

I had a lot of fun with this.  The best part is that there is practically no weeding because I stuffed it full and the rest is rock☺️!!!  

 

This is the squirrels' playground.  LM

I do remember when you started and asked for plant suggestions.  You've done a beautiful job!  A well-done garden as yours is a living work of art.  I'm just getting into primroses - finding that they do quite well in the shade, the spring blooms last a long time, and the foliage stays nice all summer.

That is just beautiful. I do remember this wall as you were working on it. I also am a gardener although on a much smaller scale and I know how much hard work that took. Congratulations! It looks great.

@ValuSkr, this is my first experience with primula.  It has been a good one. While I am turning to more shrubs, I always look for the chance to add color to my front flower bed and the rock wall.  There are also many many ways to get good color in the shade which surprised me.  LM

I wanted to add that I love the way you interspersed the statues, etc., in the rock wall, it makes such a serene, calm environment!

Beautiful.  Where are you?  Does it freeze back?
