Friday Garden

I really enjoy beautiful gardens....


...I might say I am "hooked" on them. This beauty is my mother-in-law's in Tennessee. She loves to putter and prune and gets so much joy from her little space. Isn't it beautiful?
What are you HOOKED on? Why don't you visit Julia at Hooked on Houses and see what others are hooked on!

I will be out of town for a few days...have a great weekend and "see" you next week!

I do, too. A beautiful garden makes me so happy. Too bad I'm not skilled enough (or patient enough, or hardworking enough) to create one for myself! :-)

Oh, that I could enjoy flower gardening!

As a start I'm trying to learn to identify plants, trees, and such. Plus I am making a list of ones to buy in October....

And on the back deck, I've really enjoyed my white New Guinea Impatiens. It is thriving, whereas the petunias did not :(

Let's do something when you get back.... say next Thursday?

Your MIL's garden is beautiful! I love gardens, too. I'm inspired by the beautiful gardens on Cape Cod and am working on mine at home. I will post photos next week.

I would say I am hooked on my garden, and appreciating the beauty of other people's gardens. Your mother in law has an absolutely lovely one! Please tell her so.

Kristi said...

Me too! I love to see other people's gardens and I love to garden too. Blessings to you.

You know I love my garden, I just got back from my trip and guess about the lawn. He was saved by a week of heavy rain.....

I love gardening too, but for the past few years it has been so dry, it is a constant struggle. Where is your mom in TN.? Her garden is beautiful. Thanks for the sweet note that you left me.

Hi Renae
Your mother-in-law's garden in Tennessee looks beautiful. I also love gardening and this year I planted a tomato in a pot on my kitchen terrace and it is now 5 feet tall and loaded with fruit. There is nothing as rewarding as gardening. Hope you have a great time away.
Kindest Regards
Patricia
