Lori’s garden in Utah, Day 2

receive to twenty-four hours 2 in Lori ’s garden In Layton , Utah . Lori says,“In the foothill of the Wasatch Mountains here it is quite common to see rock walls used as retaining wall . These walls can be a challenge because weeds can be very dour and you sometimes literally have to become a rock climber to garden on them !

“ In addition , where we hold up , there is a constant fear in the back of my mind that I will put my hand in a crevice of a rock to pull out a pot and find a rattlesnake ! Despite the challenge , our careen retaining paries plays a significant part in our backyard landscape painting and I was determined to do a upright caper with ours . Here are a duo of the before photos and few afters . I concenter on planting the footfall with lots of varieties of thyme and succulents which will fill in the spaces between the rocks to help keep the weeds down . ”Beautiful , Lori ! decidedly a successful speculation .
