A new garden

This is our new garden next to the garage, facing east. It gets direct sunlight from early morning until noon. I wanted a mix of different colourful flowers that will bloom from spring to fall.

We purchased a bunch of new perennials at Costco in Calgary:

-limelight hydrangea x 1
-red astilbe x 1 (I divided into 2 before planting)
-pink astilbe x 1
-white astilbe x 1
-dwarf arctic iris x 2

 These were transplanted from other parts of our yard:
-purple pansies
-bleeding hearts
-mophead hydrangea (a grocery store discount buy - I hope it survives!)

Inspired by other garden plans, I put together this montage!
