ALL MY GARDENS!!!!!!

Spring is here and its time for our gardens to put on a show...... The heat is coming and lets enjoy them for at least for a little while...... its good for the soul! Just open the back door to shop #1 and see what Sandra has done to really make it nicer to walk around outside..... it was such a mess from the winter hail storm and all the rain.... more needs to be done but the frostbitten plants and the mess of broken garden treasures are gone!

#2 shop is a profusion of purple flowers.... people walking down the street or coming into the shop have stopped to admire them.....

Meilan took time from inside the shop arranging clothes and accessories to spruce up the front of the shop's garden....

I did some gardening this past Sunday and I was telling a customer about it today... She said oh please blog it so here it is..... my front flower beds with new plants and of course yard art from the Cottage Garden.....

By my front door this sweet topiary and grape ivy.....

This fat little bird use to reside at the shop and now he followed me home.....

Love this crackle finish ceramic bunny who also came from the shop but there are more there....

I love decorating my garden with vintage items. This wheelbarrow has been in front of the house for years.....

Red geraniums are great for the garden north exposure.....

And I love to collect bird nests that have been abandoned and use in my garden....

An old tool box with plants atop it.

I also love St. Francis statuary...... he definitely belongs in the garden....

This is the beginning of a peace rose. I transplanted this bush last year and it is finally happy and produced a rose....

I love to mix garden statuary and yard art in between my plants.... just gives it that little extra pop!!!!!
