Today ’s photo are from Carolyn Kreider in Continental , Ohio . Carolyn says,“My garden is on less than half an Accho in Zone 5 in northwest Ohio , and I ’ve been work on it for about 22 years . It ’s been in a state of matter of flux this class because there were two severe storms that came through , removing two large evergreens and flattening about half of the back fence . I ’m still waiting for the contractor to come in to rebuild the fence and make other minor fixture .
“ The last 10 long time I ’ve been making changes in the garden to make it easy for me to like for as I get older . I put in the back nerve pathway to make it easier to cultivate in the garden when the weather is showery , pulling weeds , etc . I removed about one-half of the grass in the back garden , laid down landscape fabric and hauled in pea gravel , eliminate a lot of mop and trimming . In two unlike sections of the garden , I coalesce several small garden beds and made them into two large bed with way run through them to make entree well-situated . I have other change that I would like to make in the garden , but the daytime are too short !
“ My garden is both a challenge and a never ending source of felicity . ”

Wow , Carolyn , what a great garden ! The endocarp edged pea gravel route are peculiarly nice . Thanks so much for sharing .
