A broader view of Jane’s garden in Michigan

We visited Jane Sayed for the first time back in February ( freshen your memoryHERE ) , and I just knew there was more to see of her garde . And I was right !

Today she ’s back , and says,“We are celebrating our 10th summertime in our “ Modern home ” . We built the house , so the yard , which is respectable , was a blank canvas . We had a terrific landscape painting interior designer draw up a plan , and she put in most of the larger trees and shrubs . Then it was our play to get to work .

There are seven free - stand beds in add-on to the understructure plantings around the menage . I have let the Shasta daisies and coneflower multiply in the back gardens because I like the flavor of the bighearted drifts in that blank space , and the cervid leave them alone .

We terminate up with a bit more of a gradient at the back of the planetary house next to the deck , which became a rock garden . There ’s a lot of sedum groundcover , campanula , low - grow phlox growing on the bank , and at the bottom I have been adding more butterfly- and hummingbird - friendly plants the last couple of year .

We had a sozzled spring and a cooler than usual summer so far , which made the astilbe garden really kill this class . Thanks to the hard work of my husband , putting up cervid deterrent fencing along the back of the property , I have some phlox in beautiful bloom for the first time this year , and I got to enjoy the lilies briefly before the deer launch them . Now if I could just get disembarrass of those lapin ! ”

It ’s so nice to see more of your garden , Jane , give thanks you so much . It ’s beautiful !
