I planted two big pots for the driveway since it is such a large expanse of concrete. That's purple fountain grass and three varieties of ornamental sweet potato vines. The daylilies took right off after planting them. I had teased the clumps apart and planted each fan separately, so they shouldn't need to be divided too soon. I'm using primarily perennials, but after Memorial Day, I did plant the yellow lantanas from our family graves to help fill in the garden. The hyacinth vine against the brick wall is really growing well, too. I took some irises up that were in a low spot so I could add more soil. I planted them in one of the front beds. Those poor irises has seen a lot of changes this year, but I have no doubt that they will survive.
