HA! Its not a dome, its the only large tree in my yard! Its the property line between the yards here. But I am turning it into a Gnome Dome. I bought some pretties today for it! I just wanted to share! (nope no roses!) My next door neighbors kid, Kyle (this is the little guy that burned down thier house) and my new Purple Butterfly bush! Yes I have 4 new resident Gnomes in the pot! Kyle, my new pink Bougainville and Purple Butterfly bush Close up of Purple Butterfly bush Close up of Pink Bougainville Kyle (he is holding his lizard that he calls his son), my new hot pink Bougainville and pink Butterfly bush Hot pink Bougainville pink Butterfly bush(Kyle is holding up his "son" Cannas Lisianthus (purple) and Geraniums (red)with my aspusgus fern in the background The Gnome Dome.
Love the bouganvillias! Fab photos. And young Kyle...he burnt down his parents house? What, totally??
Fantastic piccies!!! Love the butterfly bushes and the cannas especially. Watch out that young Kyle doesn't set fire to your Gnome Dome when it's completed. Being really nosey here but just how did he set fire to his folks house?!!!!
I was wondering that too! Beautiful pictures - good closeups especially. I love butterfly bushes, and the bougainvilla is marvelous. Enjoy the Gnome Dome :-D
LOL Little Kyle is 4 yrs old so he thinks like one. Well, he was playing with matches and caught the mattress on fire. He then went out and shut the door so the "fire couldnt get out". By the time the smoke detector (in the hall way) went off, it was too late. They lived in a apt building and four other families lost everything too.
Whoo! Reminds me - I have a little cousin who my uncle discovered out on the wooden deck playing with the blowtorch that my pyromaniac uncle uses to deal with gophers... thankfully, he didn't get to do more than singe it, but wow - an entire apt. building!
Flipping heck!!! "Four other families lost everything too"!!!!!!!!!!!! Just don't send him over to me PLEASE!!!
Gnome Dome, that's cute Denee. Your new purchases looks like they will be welcome additions to you garden. By the way did you know that you have to pay royalties to the gnome community if you use the word "Gnome" to describe anything I'm exempt because I am an ambassador Expect a knock on your door soon!
Thats fine! I have more gnomes moving in everyday now! I guess the word got out that I was in need of a few! Theres more homeless garden Gnomes since Hurricane Katrina then I thought! They are all welcome! Im turning into a Gnome refuge Dome!
