I confess some of the photos are from last year.
We are having September weather now,damp cool nights ,rainy days.I hate to see what winter will be like.

"damp cool nights ,rainy days." That seems like a memory right now Jo. I'll be glad when these blazing hot days are past.

Pretty soon we will all be whining about snow.

I won't.

gottcha

I just found this thread, and enjoyed your tour very much! You have a beautiful home and garden. Love the containers on the deck. Let me know when you get tired of living with the kids, and I'll make room for ya here!

These are the last garden pix this year. I find some colors interesting and mature plant shapes too not very many blooms

Rose, sorry, I have dibs on Jo's landscaping skills. LOL.

You don't eat much and you make great containers. I have an extra room you could paint in.

LOL Thanks everyone.

amazing how fast the lasagna garden filled in so fast.. 2 or 3 years now?

2 years I think. I planted most of th perennials in April of '09. Lilies came last year.

Just amazing

'09 is when I started the garden in March. It wasnt the right way to lasagna. I should have waited a year before planting anything.
The soil is clay and stones so amendments had to go in. I have a guy who will help spread composted leaves. He will be here next week.

that's great

Garden smarter - Garden longer.
