The other day I posted a picture of Imagination Station #2, which has been taken over by some kind of vine. Here is the first imagination station. With a little help from me, this one has a honeysuckle growing on it. The plant originates in the so-called shovel garden directly in front of the structure or shelter or sculpture or whatever you want to call the thing (I just keep calling them imagination stations…..works for me).

You can see some of the original structure and on the right side, some of the honeysuckle flowers. Around the back, I’ve layered on sod I’ve taken from the front yard when I created a new garden. Maybe one day this will be a living imagination station. I can tell you that I think after this season this one is going to need a renovation to shore it up and add structural and dimensional stability. Kind of like an engineering project but without the engineering.

In another area of the garden, I created a path last year and under the path I laid some landscape cloth. Georgie discovered the landscape cloth under a few inches of soil and cedar mulch and has proceeded to pull quite a bit of it out so I could see it was under there. Thanks George. Now that it’s up, I’m thinking that the next imagination station is somehow going to incorporate that landscape cloth…..
