Garden Photos
So I guess I'm an old soul, because I loooove to garden! For the last 3 years I've spent every summer gardening, and I must say it's looking very nice this year Thought I would post some photos of my latest achievements. Hope you like them!
The first three are of my Bachelor Button plants (a.k.a. cornflower). The one in the middle is a cultivar called "Amethyst in Snow"...I adore these plants! |

This is my iris (not 100% sure what variety because it came from my grandmother's garden, but I believe it's Siberian Iris). I love the colour
The last photo is of perennial pansy (with some stonecrop in the lower left-hand corner). It's a relatively slow-spreading groundcover. I work strictly with perennials because I'm trying to increase the value of our home and I can't be bothered to keep replacing the plants! Last edited by EndOfFashion; May 25th, 2009 at 09:31 AM. |

This last one is an overall view of part of my front garden. I like English cottage-style gardens...lots of plants mixed in and nothing too structured or organized. This is mostly various forms of groundcover (I have about 3 or 4 different varieties of moss phlox!). I'm not 100% sure of all of the plants because some of them came from my grandmother a few years ago, but the majority were planted within the last 3 years. I'll get more photos of the overall garden (I want to show you guys my Japanese maple!) today - my batteries in my camera died yesterday :sad:
