My Back Yard Garden

It always amazes me how fast a perennial garden takes over.

Just a short few weeks ago, I had weeded all the gardens for the

first time this year and other than taking a glimpse here and there, I have left them alone waiting for the weather to allow me to plant my annuals.

But, when I saw how much they had grown in the last week

while we were away.

Wow!  It did not take me long to hit the nursery.

Here are some pictures taken this morning . . .

When it comes to my garden, I enjoy May through July the most.

Everything is up and growing!!!!!!!!!! And it all looks fresh.  There is something new each day to enjoy.  By mid-June the annuals are up and running and July is filled with color and on-going growth.

These two are taken from the yard looking toward the back of the garden.  There is a path that follows along side the house to another garden area (the little brown building is actually our neighbors)

This is the peninsula area.

Peninsula area

My peonies all in bud!

These last few pictures were all taken on the back side

of peninsula looking toward the house.

I have finally had the time and pleasure of getting outside and spending time

in my garden(s) . . . still more to do!
