I am still deeply embroiled in planning and designing gardens, and am preparing my own for an upcoming photo shoot besides. So, although I can’t write much I don’t want to miss sharing my daughter’s updated garden photos as the spring unfolds.
I have so much to say on this blog, and no time to say any of it, so here’s hoping that a picture really is worth a thousand words!
Happy June gardening.
Looking great! Lots of hard work is paying off. I love those irises, one of my favorite flowers.
Thanks Frankie. I know that you are well aware of the amount of work in a garden. There are so many amazing varieties of iris I’d love to add . . . .
Your garden looks so beautiful!! It will be wonderful in the photo shoot!! Deb. 🙂
Thanks Deborah, you are the best. I can’t wait to get back to really posting and catching up with everyone else’s posts. I keep printing your honey recipes and buying the ingredients, then no-one has time to make them–sheesh, we are way back on Honey-Coconut Macaroons!
I’m going to compile all my honey recipes in a little e-book. I’m working on it now.
I know this is your busiest season, but I miss your posts!! 🙂
Deb
Oh, the e-book is such a great idea–I’ve never seen a book of just honey recipes; as a teenager we made everything with honey instead of other sugars. Again, you amaze me with what you get done.
When I’m doing what I love, I can get tons done!! I’m sure you’re the same way. 🙂
Wow!! Gorgeous landscape!
The pictures said it all. Your work is just lovely. Thus, I have nominated you for the One Lovely Blog Award. Details of this can be found here: http://czechtheflip.com/2012/06/13/this-made-my-day/
Congratulations!
Hello Grace, and thank you for this lovely comment and nomination. I really fell behind for a while but I will do the responding post with nominations in the next day or two. I enjoyed all the interesting facts about you!
Much of my youth was spent in northern Utah where irises grow wild. They still are one of my favorite flowers although they don’t grow so well here in San Diego. The heat destroys them.
Interesting that they don’t grow well there. It gets terribly hot here in summer too, but perhaps they’re one of those things that needs a really cold dormant season.
Sigh. So beautiful garden!
Thank you! The garden gives me so much happiness.
