Great project and congratulations on the wedding. Perfect design for a suburban lot. Looks like it would be easy to deer proof,too. I might have to add this to the project list.

I'll go take a couple of shots today and post them tonight. All-in-all, It's been working out great. I can't wait to turn it into a veggie garden, but the Missus might nix that plan because she loves the flowers so much.

Here are some photos from the project. The size of these flowers range from 5' to 8' across...They are huge.

I have to say that I really enjoy the ability to walk to the center of this garden. It's a fun place to chill and relax, and I often just go read in the middle of it.

In hindsight, I probably would have made the center area slightly bigger, it's a tight fit in there. I'd like to do it with another 12" to move around, or put a bigger chair inside it.

I don't think that last photo does the size justice. The tallest flowers in here are easily 6' high. I walk in and am surrounded by foliage.
