    I'm totally enamored of this burgundy oxalis.

    We call this "the bloody hut"

    My little pergola.

    Bethie I am officially in love with your garden :smt055

    So much to enjoy here, "the bloody hut" (why the name?), the pretty pergola and the watering can planter. So nice.

    Really lovely, one day I plan on having some nice places to sit and relax like yours. What is the lavender plant in the watering can? Everything looks so nice.

    Cajunbelle-that is a miniature impatient.
    Glendann-Have you thought about hypertufa? You can easily and inexpensively make lovely things from that. I make that stuff all the time. It's fun. :-D

    Let me add myself to the list of people who would happily just live in your garden - the details are such fun, such as the way you coordinated the color of the butterflies with the oxalis, the leaves on the pergola table and the butterfly-shaped cutouts in your fence. Wonderful!

    I love your garden too. You've achieved the look I'm trying to achieve, but just quite haven't gotten there yet! How long did it take for you to get to this point?

    Bethie your garden is sooooo beautiful!!! I love the butterfly cut outs in your fence!! Your oxalis is very nice with the purple butterflies below it!! I have a burgandy oxalis, but it is a tiny little thing hopefully one day it will grow up and look like yours!! Your garden is truly amazing thanks for posting the pics for us to enjoy!!!
