Which is why we have to have some for the grandkids! All boys, and they need it, but I can still have room for flowers and veggies, so we are all happy! ('Cept for maybe DH )

I just toured your amazing garden again...Love it as much or more than last year..Hope you are planning on adding more pictures this year.

Love your garden..all the ROSES..WOW
Thank you for sharing your kitties too..to cute.

Zuzu beautiful and a well established garden .
Regards,
Arif.

Just saw your garden, Zuzu.

Spectacular, quite exceptional.

I know how much work goes into doing that.
As usual, the plants just don't do it themselves.

Thank you, Charlie. It takes some work, but I have perfect weather and perfect soil, so it's not as much work as you might think.

Zuzu, What beautiful gardens, I love the roses! We can only grow a few climbing varieties here so I really appreciate
you sharing yours. I can almost smell the fragrance! I'm so looking forward to the new pictures, but I bet you're almost to busy
taking care of our pictures to have time to take pictures of yours.

Hi, Sue. You're right. I definitely should take some time off to update my own pictures. I posted these in February 2010, but they were from the previous May. That's four years ago! Hard to believe how quickly time can zip by. I'll do it this May for sure!

May - goody,goody

Looking forward to seeing the new pictures.

Can't wait, Zu!

Absolutely stunning, I can't help but

I took a few shots of her garden last week when we hit a few nurseries, one overcast day, one sunny..

Beautiful Zuzu! The structures with the massive plants/vines are awesome!!
Your cat picture is darling I bet it loves being in the garden.

I especially like the red clematis, do you remember what variety it is?
Thanks for the update and can't wait for the next installment.

Lovely views, Zuzu.

Love the cat (who compliments any colour
and I'm sure is a good person too).

Just beautiful!

Do you have a place to sit and enjoy it? Or does the upkeep take up all your time?

The red clematis is Rebecca, a truly red bloom! Clematis Rebecca™
I edited my post to add names.

Gorgeous pictures as always, Sue, and thanks for answering our other Sue's question.

"Other Sue," maybe we should start calling you Susie. The manmade structures are awesome, I agree, and I'm really happy with them, but you may be interested in a photo of my most massive plant, which would collapse any manmade structure. It's the Wisteria in front of my house. It's held up by two oak trees and you can judge the size of it in relation to my neighbor's car beneath it.



Charlie, Mambo is a good person and actually acts more like a person than any other cat I've ever owned. A few days ago, he sensed that he was going to throw up, ran into the bathroom, and threw up into the toilet. I've never had a more considerate cat.

Polly, there are chairs and benches throughout the garden, but I never sit down on them. Someday I'll have to start doing that.

Mambo sounds wonderful, Zuzu.

Such a nice change from our last cat, Buddy, whom we always boasted was the dirtiest cat in the world.
One of his habits: eating my crocus leaves and then running straight in to puke on the living room carpet.

WOW! WOW! WOW! That Wisteria is mind boggling it is so Big and Gorgeous! Do you ever worry that in might reach out and grab you and you might never be found again Thanks for the info on the clematis Sue and I would be happy to be Susie to save some confusion.
