Garden Inspiration!

Hello Fellow Gardeners!

In my last article I mentioned “your friend’s garden” as a possibility for practicing the wonderful art of garden photography.

Well my friend and garden club buddy, Sharon has the most gorgeous garden! So I thought that I would share with you some of the pictures I took the last time we had a meeting at her house.

Sharon is a meticulous gardener! She pays attention to the four commandments of gardening: color, height, texture, and grouping. As you can see, she puts a lot of effort into keeping her garden beautiful—it is continuous blooming (not an easy task!) and is just as gorgeous as the pictures you see here, all season long.

Sharon loves gardening and it shows! With her permission here is some gardening eye candy for your appreciation…

A wonderful place to sit and dream…

Sharon uses this pretty statue as the focal point of her garden!

Or just sit back and enjoy the shade!

A garden is a great place to let your sense of humor fly!

These tulips are extra special because they are perennial tulips. They are much taller and sturdier than your average tulip!

Garden’s don’t have to be all straight lines! I love the curve Sharon put into her bed– it adds style and pizzazz!

Sharon did all of the work on this garden by herself– even the laying of the brick! What an inspiration!
