Maddie's Memorial Garden - Phase 1

Today mom, dillan, some neighborhood kids and I spent the day cleaning up part of the yard and starting a memorial garden for Maddie.  I have to say my absolutely favorite is her bird bath - it looks like aged brass and is etched with various flowers and birds.

I need to buy more bark.  And i left enough room for others to add plants when they come to visit (hint hint).  My mom is going to add a cute little kid's bench we spotted at a garden shop in PG and also a vine plant (after we paint the house).  Eventually there will also be a plaque or mosaic or something with her name and dates.  What you see are 2 butterfly bushes, 5 cyclamens (2 pink, 2 white, 1 red), and a blue eyed fuschia.   Getting a visual yet?

Special thanks and shameless plug for Seaside Garden Center for donating the flower plants.
