\nI’m disgusted with the crabgrass, though, and the fact that it’s there at all is partially the fault of the stupid shed people, who refused to book my installation when they first promised.<\/p>

\nI’ve been working on getting more color in the back of the garden at the top of the “U”. I’m hoping that the full sun plants I put there will be okay. If not, I’ll have to use Chameleon, one of the few shade-loving species that has bright color.
