Do you see my new pink knock-out rose on the right? Believe it or not that was a throw-away from work. When I took it out of the pot it didn't have much of a root ball. Hopefully with the rain and sunshine it will do well.
As you can see in these pics I'm going to have to do lots of weeding. Lots of weeds and grass to pull. Lots of tidying up to do. This bed is on the exact opposite end of my Keepsake Garden
Oh well, now my biggest problem is this. What am I going to name this flower bed?

I hope the plants enjoy their new home. Sometimes you have to make adjustments a couple of times. I have no suggestions for a name at this time. I'll have to get back to you. ;)
Pgl-Good, I need suggestions!!!
I wish you luck with this special bed. I hope everything does really well! Hey, how about "hopeful" :)
Meadowview-I'll take hopeful!!
Susie, you are so ambitious! The new bed looks great and I am sure yoyr plants will reward you for the TLC. Now what are you putting in the wet bed??
You name your flowerbeds eh? You could name the new one: "Saved by Susie." ;~)
Obedient Plant doesn't mind wet feet. You could put it in the wet spot, but it will roam a little.
Your knock out rose might have had a small root ball, but it sure looks healthy and happy. Is that coconut fiber that you're using for mulch?
Hmm... I don't know but good luck with this new bed.
Beckie-I don't know if ambitious is the right word, maybe crazy for planting so much! You know, I'm not sure what I will plant in the wet bed. I'm going to give this some thought. It will be directly in the sun, so I'll need to do a little research.
Yes, TC, I name my flower beds. Believe it or not our cars have names too!
Actually, it's just easier to keep up with when writing about them.
I have grown obedient plant before and you are right. It takes over big time! It is pretty though! Thanks for the suggestion.
Flydragon-The knock-out does look pretty good. I came home from work today and worked out in that bed some more. Okay, actually I added some more plants but that's for another day.
Thanks Dp-I'll just have to think about it.
flydragon-I left this out of the first message. That is pine straw that I use for mulch.
I think you should name it "weedfree"...LOL...who knows, it might encourage it in the right derection.
I am sure a little sun and a lot of love will bring it back for you. It is amazing how a near dead plant can come back.
Eve-It's definitely going to need some encouraging or maybe I will need some to get out there and weed.
There's lots of work to be done in this bed.
wow i guess i am alittle on the slow side i didn't realize you name all your beds. but you know how i feel about names. it has to be a good one.
Hey Marmee, I don't have but 4 beds including the new one. So at the moment it isn't too hard to keep up with.
