Finally got the elderberry planted out

8 years ago

I put it out under the dead hibiscuses, because nothing was growing fast enough to shade the plants underneath from the harshest sun later this summer. I had hoped the morning glories I planted would grow fast and cover the dead limbs, but snails got most of them, so that didn't work out. The elderberry will hopefully grow enough to shade them from the afternoon sun. It has a little pigeon pea next to it to keep it company.


I figure the flowers and fruit will grow up over the wall, so the birds can get to it easily. My mockingbird is such a little scavenger. He's going to love it, and the bees too, of course.
