My flower pots have never, ever looked this good! I think it is because we finally got some rain barrels and now I’m using rain water. I was never really sold on the idea of rain barrels but I have completely changed my mind. Now I’m like the crazy water lady, if I see a shower on the way I quickly fill up all my watering cans and extra pails so that I can make more room in the barrels. Heaven forbid they ever dry up!
Barbara your garden is amazing and your location sensational. Love your pots too. It must be such a pleasant place to call home.
Beautiful. Love the vista from your deck!
my lordy that’s beautiful and lush!
all I can say is WOW!!!! how gorgeous… and yes rain barrels are great.. if you get rain!!!!
We are so dry here, I’ve been too busy for flowers this summer (isn’t that sad) and the lawn is brown and crispy. :(
Your garden has brought a little sunshine to my day.
What a beautiful garden and what a view of the water too. I was laughing looking at the lush greenery as it is so very beautiful and such an impossible dream here in Texas. All my perennials are struggling thanks to the 100F+ days we are enduring.
That is one beautiful deck to sit upon and admire the view.
very beautiful, especially w/ the lake in the distance =)
YOu have a beautiful backyard…the kinda yard I’d dream of!
BEAUTIFUL!!! I love all of your flowers and how everything is so GREEN! With a view like that, I would never want to leave!
Your lake view is to die for!!!! I’m moving in … and I’ll promise to keep your rain barrels full!
Hi Barb! Oh my how beautiful is that?! just gorgeous and very lush. I see a lake in the distance! You live in heaven.
Love your peonies too for Texture Tuesday! Peonies always have a soft spot in my heart.
The yummy strawberry-rhubarb dessert looks scrumptious too! Yum
I’m thinking of doing that rain barrel thing too! Can you give us any tips?
Love your photography, oh and thank you for finding me again!
You have an amazingly beautiful garden. I love the view over the lake.
