Decisions, Decision




I hate being plagued with doubt, but I find myself just that over my new garden bed. After my visit to Monticello last month, I was certain that I was going to place a round bed in the grass space to allow for more planting space and for an interesting shape to the garden.



Well this morning while cutting the grass to its center, I left a space that was more rectangular and followed the shape of the garden and I thought that this might be the ideal shape for the new bed.



At this point, I cannot decide and it is maddening!!! I thought I would let my readers and facebook friends weigh in on the choice...it may make it easier...I mocked up the two options in the yard and took pictures (above). Let me know what you think!



Happy Gardening!

Actually I'm not convinced that either a big round bed or a big square/rectangular bed is the ideal solution. What about a round bed broken up into quadrants, divided by perpendicular walkways? That strikes me as very 18th century.
