Left: Photos are a good way to see your garden from a different perspective! I was looking at this photo thinking this area has alot of green but lacks colour. The pink heather provides a little late summer/ autumn colour; the calendula self seed and provide yellow flowers but I definitely need more wow factor! (A bit of a project to work on.)
Plants pictured:
Variegated Ivy, Ornamental grass, Calendula annual flowers, Box hedge, Heather (pink), Harry lauder's walking stick, palm trees.

This is the journal of my endeavours to grow a range of fruit, veg & flowers from seed, grow organically, and my attempts to create an outdoor personal paradise with 1/2 acre of maintained gardens and 1/2 acre of wild meadows.

Taking photos always helps to see that which somehow had escaped our eyes before. I do it a lot with my painting and am always amazed how I could miss certain things that were so obvious once I took a photo.
ReplyDeleteHello Kelli!
ReplyDeleteWhat a BEAUTIFUL garden you have...it's very lush and green. If you ever experienced gardening in Kansas you'd understand why I LOVE the green ;) I think it looks great just the way it is but I do understand what you mean...you have to look at it with an artists eye. I hope you have other photo's of this 'Harry Lauder's walking stick....I'd like to see that! Love the name :) I'm going to have fun looking around your blog. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a message...I love Ireland and so does my husband. We've never been there but that's a dream for the future. Have a wonderful day!
Maura :)
Just beautiful!
