Home Depot Entry #1 – A Bog Garden of My Own
Entrant’s Name: Jackie
Jackie’s Project:
My garden project is this ugly drainage ditch I have running through my front yard. It’s always full of water that overflows from a pond up the road. My idea is to turn this ugly thing into a pretty bog garden. Part of it holds water year-round and the rest stays mushy and kinda swampy and nearly impossible to mow.

Just be careful, standing water in bog gardens can attract nasty insects, especially mosquitoes. If you go for it (it could be gorgeous) just be sure to invest in a pesticide for the insects.
