Hi again,

I just wanted to make one more suggestion for you to consider. I love begonias and they are low maintenance and I put them across the front of my garden in the front yard as well as around my beds in the backyard as you can see in the previous picture. If you like red--red begonias would make a nice border annual around the bed. I just plant each one with Composted Cow Manure and I put a little Osmocote around each one at planting time and that is all. I had topsoil brought in when I made the raised beds in the front yard and then added a lot off Composted Cow Manure and the soil in my gardens is very loose ..
