I love to see where you guys all place your benches and garden lounge items. Becky your place looks very comforting with that sweet bench. Hope you get to sit back and enjoy the garden some there.

Thank you, Polly!

Tracey, the bench in the enlarged Red Alert photo is a tree ring bench. The iron furniture behind the shed is child sized. It is a favorite spot for my little granddaughter. Here is a pix from earlier this spring.

This is part of my iris sales garden. I put some lilies in there just to liven it up. But everywhere I have a garden, my granddaughter has one too, so she can work in hers while I'm in mine. If you look to the right, where the white lilies are, that's her row. She planted and maintained that row all herself. Jenna is 9, and she's very proud of her lily garden.
