Above is one of the first gardens that we put in when we decided to become gardeners. It is a strip in the back yard that started out with a 3 almost dead bushes we bought at an end of the year sale. We have added to this garden since as well as adding other gardens to our property.
This garden we created in order to not have to mow over these trees big roots that were on the serface. We added hosta, and azalea that we rescued from a shaded woods and nice statue/bird baths. You can see some alpaca in the background and a row of small trees heading of to the left.
This was taken through a window and is still another garden. Winter gives everything such a different life. We enjoy it but are always glad to see everything alive and well in the summer.
