The Wall of Ivy

These photos don't look like much and that's the point.  Debbie Lux doesn't think much of that bed of ivy along the wall.  So watch for the coming transformation.

When enlarged the photo above shows a little bit of the sloping triangular bed at the top of the wall.   As of today,  that bed is bare.   Deb cleared it last fall and planted hundreds of bulbs.  This new  bed of bulbs can best be viewed from the hallway outside the Activities room or from the corner window of the coffee shop.

After seeing her photos here, Deb emailed,
"Hi Maggie, It's really going to be a popular site.  I'm very interested in helping with pictures.  I would like for you to add, Dwayne Mathews was a very big help in clearing up this area.  He also power washed the walls and side walk after we added compost.  Ivy could return, so I'll plant annuals until I'm sure it's gone for good.  Thanks so much for a wonderful blog.  I'll check it often.  Debbie"
