I am pretty happy with how my side yard looks this year. When I am resting in one of those chairs with a glass of lemonade, I will be thinking of all of you Stewbies! From under the pine tree ( photo / image / picture from daisybeans's Garden ) Sitting in the lemonade chair ( photo / image / picture from daisybeans's Garden )
looks really healthy and green.. some of my grass out front is a lil faded from the sun, i think i need to get the sprinkler out..
everything looks nice & green. Our yard has begun to get dry spots from no rain though my flowers seem to still be doing good. I see your hosta's have their flowers-looking good.
HEY you have two lemonade chairs so maybe I'll come over and join you!! I'd certainly love to sit and look over that lovely, lush garden of yours. :-D
Yes! Come over for some lemonade! I will even break out the cushions for the lemonade chairs! So, all that rain we had this Spring = lots of green grass and happy plants, lots of blooms on the hostas. That's why I was hesitant to complain. Soon enough it will be hot so I figured I better get a pic while things are green.
Such beautiful gardens, Daisybeans ! Congratulations for all of your hard work. Absolutely stunning I love how it looks so lush and green.
Not much lush greenery around here lately! Just looking at your garden has cooled me off... even without lemonade!
DB it is beautiful. I also noticed two lemonade chairs. Thought I would drop by this afternoon and have a glass. Such lush foliage, everything is so green. You thought it would never stop raining, but look at the pay-off.
Our grass crunches when you walk on it but with two families using the well I sure don't want to do any watering for things you can't eat. Well, except for the smaller flowerbeds. dooley
OK, KG -- I'll have the lemonade ready! Oh no, Dooley! I know just what you're talking about with the crunchy grass! I will have crunchy grass here shortly. I wasn't actually "watering" -- I'm a stingy (or maybe lazy...) waterer generally speaking except for veggies and new flowers and pots. I never water my grass.... I turn on the sprinkler for the birds to fly through. They love it and I like to watch. All the rain we had.... I don't remember my yard looking this green, ever. Had to snap it. Thank you so much for the nice comments everyone.
Ha! Kaseylib -- I make a very yummy Cosmo if I do say so myself... I have more chairs too, by the way! :-D
Your yard does look wonderful daisybeans! It looks like someone is sitting and watching you in that first photo What's in the pots?
Maybe someone is watching from the tops of the trees! Hmm, the pots.. actually that's a bed that I'm still working on after pulling out a bunch of ivy and trimming the lilacs suckers last year. I'm adding to it slowly. So it's sort of a mishmash of pots there temporarily, things I want to keep my eye on, things that could go somewhere else maybe... there is a geranium blooming (overwintered), there is a Sedum Autumn Joy, a pot of chrysanthemums, a pot of marigolds/celosia (maybe not planted all the way yet), a mystery plant... Just outside of the pic is where my larger herb pots are next to the porch.
