My Garden

I installed a garden this weekend at the Pack Station. It wraps around the deck, oops, I mean handicap ramp, and makes the benches even more inviting spots. The decomposed granite soil makes a great base with good drainage, but there is virtually no organic material. I added plenty of donkey poop and composted forest product.

In case the Forest Service reads this, all the plants are native. The Cuphea is native to Mexico, the Callistemon is native to Australia, the Bulbinella is native to South Africa...
