Garden Dreams

Hello everyone,

With spring quickly approaching it is

time for a little garden dreaming.

I am really looking forward to seeing

the return of new growth and

beauty in the garden again.

I am sure all you gardeners

feel the same way.

Sadly this arbor and fence got destroyed by the

heavy winds of Fiona last fall so it will

be awhile before it can be fixed.

A foggy morn

Clematis climbing on the lamp post and birdhouse

give color and height in the garden.

Peonies

This will be one of the first bits

of beauty to arrive in the spring garden.

Phlox with Annebelle hydrangeas

in the background.

Annebelles are easy to grow here

and as they spread we divide

and move them around the

garden ....you can never have too

many hydrangeas!

I love the richness of this

dark red peony.

Peony,lilac and rose season....my favorites!

I have many different varieties

of peonies and lilacs.

                                                          

You have to love these beautiful Sensation Alliums

and they also spread around the garden.

Lupin season is so pretty

Love blues in the garden

Six Hills Giant Nepeta and roses

                                                   Shasta daisies and roses

I may have got carried away

with my peony pics.

A nice shady place to relax

We just got a fresh coat of snow here

but it won't last long and before

we know it there will be 

lots of new growth bursting

through the ground and trees

coming into bud.

In the meantime spring

cleaning awaits indoors.

Thank you for dreaming along with me!

Happy Spring,

Carolyn
