What a beautiful lush and colorful garden you have! The Clematis and roses look so nice together along with all the other plants. I really enjoyed the tour!

Lovely garden!

When I moved in, there were only two sick Forsythia bushes growing from the mixture of sand, gravel, stones and brick chips. I was cleaning stones and removing brick chips whole that summer, but I managed to plant the roses in the fall. It took me three years to nurse the Forsythias back to health, but it was worth it.

I am truly happy that you like the garden.

You did a wonderful job!!

Wow! Beautiful and dreamy like a fairy garden, a little paradise and haven for wildlife! Great job!

A gardener after my own heart, plant full & lush for lots of show and you certainly have seemed to have packed a lot in a small space. Your seasonal photos certainly show how well it works!

Thank you Bonitin

When in bloom, the border of Chinese chives is a highway for bees, bumblebees, wasps and many other pollinators. There are thousands of little white Chinese chives flowers in the straigth line, so it is probably easy for the insects to move along the border and collect food. Queen Anne's Lace grow as weed in the garden, but I always leave some of those plants to add texture to the border and to provide more food for bees and bumblebees. I love bumblebees; they are my favorite

Love your garden! That chaotic, wildflowery look is so appealing to me!

What a BEAUTIFUL garden - thank you so much for sharing it with us

Ditto to what everyone above said !
Very very nice. Great job !

I hope some day to have many awesome clemati like your lovely gardens!

Sue, Neal, Vic, Mike and Jennifer, thank you for your kind words.

Glad that you like the garden. Hope we will discuss more garden design ideas in the near future. Any suggestions?

Jennifer, clematises (or at least some of them) are really easy plants to grow. Hope we will chat more during the clematis week in June.

Again, thank you.
