In our pretty garden

Today me and the boys redid the front garden. First we pulled out all the weeds that had creeped in. We also took the sickly azealias out. I put them in the back in a much shadier spot. This spot gets a lot of sunlight

Then we got a pile of flowers. And top soil. And fresh mulch. We got some of these pink mystery flowers. Do you know what these are? We have 18 of these.
We have three yellow snapdragons. We are not sure if these will grow. I've never seen any here. They had tulips too and I am almost SURE those don't grow here? (Zone 8). So these snaps are a trial. We like the idea of the whole back row being full of them, but we shall see.
Then we have this dusty miller. We actaully got 8 of these, two large like this, and 6 tiny ones. Ethan is in LOVE with this plant. We put three tiny ones in last year and they literally disappeared overnight. We don't have rabbits or anything, they just sorta poofed and were gone. So we put a lot this year, I hope they don't disappear.
And that's what we did today.
