When Mother Nature hands you opportunities, you need to take advantage of them. We had very rocky soil, so my husband, the optimist saw an opportunity to create great gardens. As you can see the rocks were put to good use. Daylilies and Roses play a strong part of this particular garden. This one is by the driveway at the garage level of the house.
Daylilies seem to be immune to most pests and plant diseases.
That is one of the reasons that I like them. This particular garden is composed of elevated beds, which were formed from railroad ties. Concrete steps and walks between the beds allow for easy access. We interplanted other perennials with the Daylilies so that we have something blooming most of the time. As you take the steps to the upper level of the gardens, St. Francis welcomes all our feathered friends on Roddy's Mountain.
