It’s been a year since I started the redesign of Libertiny gardens. I have to say, I am pretty happy with the results. The boxwood and yews have made all the difference in the world, adding some much needed structure to the design. The garden can now hold it own during the winter months and the design will continue to improve as the plants mature.
Here’s a few images of how things look a little over a year after the redesign started.
View across the Garden in August 2011. You can see the Eastern redbud trees along the back fence are growing nicely and forming a screen.
View looking towards the house across the garden. The boxwood are starting to grow nicely now and provide good structure for the garden beds.

Japanese Anemones are one of my favorite garden plants. They are easy to grow, bloom late in the season and sway beautifully in the breeze. I have a collection of hot pink, light pink and white anemones in my garden. Here are a few images of them blooming in the garden.

Alliums are one of my favorite Spring bulbs. They look cool, like something from a Dr. Seuss book, and the deer, rabbits and ground hogs won’t touch them. That definitely makes them keepers!
This time of year, the alliums are blooming along with forget-me-nots and Dames rocket. Check out the photos below to see what’s happening in the garden. Things are starting to perk up!
