Another beautiful garden--Jo's

My friend Jo, lives in a wooded area, where all has been left natural and there are no lawns. Jo has worked at her grounds for years, each year being better than the year before! Last year she had some rockary work put in for beds.....and this year she is reaping the fruit of her labors!

The captions under the pictures are hers. Enjoy!!

My new rock wall flower beds this first summer after it was built.

Close up of some of the flowers I planted in my "digable dirt"!!

It is such a blessing to have some dirt I can dig in!

The other side is my new vegetable garden. I have eaten three
tiny cherry tomatoes already and yesterday I made six loaves of zucchini bread
from these two zucchini plants!!

Sadly my "Red Bud" tree is half dead. It was sooo beautiful

last summer! Not sure what can be done about the tree yet.

My first flower arrangement I made from flowers in my new garden

Summer of 2008

Jo and I have been close friends for over thirty years. She has always had a green thumb. When I first knew her she raised roses--beautiful, show quality, long stemmed roses, then she moved to the shade, so had to change her interests!
