One last photograph from Philip Leveridge in Austin , Texas . I fell in dearest with his hay bale garden table . He say , “ These grasses lie between a couple of out of sight galvanized sword fund tank pocket billiards . I garden more with foliage than efflorescence so ornamental Mary Jane naturally feature heavily in the East Side Patch , both for texture and drouth hardiness . Dwarf miscanthus , pampas grass and bamboo muhly contrast in this scene with the large-minded leaves of a burgundy canna lily , another personal ducky for leafage color and repetition . I have a small mound in the background to tot some “ Jurassic ” dimension to a loquat , and pampas to equilibrize the marvellous cattails on the leftfield . The hay bale board works great for quite some time before it eventually ends up on the compost pile . ” Thanks yet again , Philip , for sharing yourEast Side Patchwith us !
