Thanks! I have been working on this garden for more than ten years now. It has been a lot of work getting what I wanted here but I just love, love, love my garden.

Forcythia in bloom.

Terraces gardens in back yard near my kitchen door. This garden area is a stunner in early summer as the daylilies, lilies, ris, roses, catmint and annuals bloom. I have the daffs there but I want to put in more spring bulbs in this area this fall. I plan to add more daffs, some tulips and a bunch of Chionodoxa. That very front bottom terrace mid part gets Portulas planted there for the past two years and I intend to do that again this year.
