It all looks gorgeous Carolyn! Haven't we had a great summer so far? I hope it continues although we do need rain. Our lawn is getting quite brown now.
Beautiful!
Your place is so beautiful and inspiring! I was wondering if you might like to do a post on how you control weeds? We have such a problem with crabgrass, I can't seem to keep on top of it. How do you keep the grass from your yard from creeping into your flower beds? Thanks!

Hi Carmen,
We keep the weeds from creeping into the flower beds by edging the beds a few times a year and hoeing them occasionally.
In the spring we try to keep ahead of the weeds when they are still small and later our beds are very full so the weeds don't have the space to take over. Of course, even then you will always find some weeds.
Thanks for the visit!

Stunning! I especially love the bright pink hollyhock photo!

Oh, how gorgeous! I'm wondering how long you've been working it...it's established looking. Mine is only 3 years old and obviously I have some catching up to do! Thank you for the inspiration!
