Mosaic Monday

Hello everyone,

      I hope you all enjoyed your weekend. It is sunny here today and slowly warming up again so I enjoy taking a morning tour around the garden seeing all the new growth and enjoying all the birdsong!

Today,I have some pretty pastel mosaics for you.

I haven't had much time with my camera lately so some of may have seen these before.

I love all the colors of spring!

I see the lilac bushes are starting to bud so pretty soon, I will be picking bouquets again.

And of course,I can't wait to have roses again-starting in June here in our climate.We live in a zone 5b area.

Peonies are also a big part of the June garden here.

I see lots of tulips and daffodils poking up so by next month there will be lots of bouquets to be picked.



 I am joining  Little Red House for Mosaic Monday today.

Thank you for visiting,

Carolyn

Garden Views

Hello everyone,

     It is April already and although I am sharing some different views of our garden in all it's glory I have to confess it is still mostly shades of brown right now so not exactly photogenic just yet. The only blooms I have right now are a few snowdrops.

      

So I am taking you on a little tour of the garden last year.

This hillside garden will soon be covered with the cheery blooms of hundreds of daffodils but here in August the daylillies steal the show.The steps in the hillside garden are old Island sandstone that were used in the foundation of my daughters old home.

I am looking forward to color in the garden again.

My husband built this arbor many years ago.

The August garden- our most colorful month.

A shot taken from our balcony- facing south.

Also shot from the balcony but facing west.

My new camera takes video as well, so this summer I am looking forward to doing some videos and hopefully I can figure out how to put one on my blog someday.

Just a few random shots of some of our garden last year-hope you enjoy them!

Thank you for visiting me.
