Early Fall Garden Stroll


Hi there, Friends! Even though it's still quite warm here, it is officially fall and it's been awhile since I've shared the garden.  Join me for a leisurely stroll ...

Salt, Cement and Seeds...Oh My!


Greetings Friends! At my house, gathering to watch It's a Wonderful Life was a Christmas tradition. Now, you may be wondering why I am bringing up holiday traditions in the heat of July. The classic movie is chock-full of wonderful quotes and one of my favorites is from Donna Reed's character, Mary. "Bread that this house may never know hunger, wine that joy and prosperity may reign and salt that life may always have flavor." Don't you love it? Today I'm sharing several of my latest garden projects and the first is--you guessed it--salt!

Garden Bench Refresh!

Happy Wednesday Friends! I try to take advantage of the mild spring weather by working on outdoor projects before the temperature rises.  My latest endeavor was to refresh a tired garden bench...

May Flowers: Vibrant Blue Sage


Happy Wednesday Friends! While we didn't have much in the way of April showers in my area, I would still like to share some of my favorite May flowers this month. First in the series is today's feature, Blue Sage.  Its vibrant blue spiked bloom creates a showy display and has brought more than one visitor to my door to inquire its name. It is often mistaken for Bluebonnets and even Lavender.  Once planted it grows like wild, plus it is drought tolerant and is one of the very few plants the deer absolutely will not eat--I promise!
