Gardening...love it or hate it!!!


               
                Oak Lawn Images is not just about photography. We like to provide a place for anyone who would like to come and enjoy the peace and serenity of our beautiful scenery. So, we work very hard all Spring, Summer and Autumn on our gardens, to provide a nice spot for folks to sit and relax as they take in the breathtaking view that we  are lucky enough to enjoy. 

We’ve just recently been able to get out and remove some of the fast growing weeds like dandelions, creeping Charlie, trip weed and stray grasses from the gardens. It’s been raining and wet so many days that it’s been hard to even get out. Here in the eastern part of Canada, we’ve had to do what gardening we can between the downpours.  And of course there’s  the high rubber boots and old clothes.

Today, for the first time I was able to do some badly needed edging. I managed to get two gardens, one tiny and one medium one finished. We still have about 15 to go.
We’ve been lucky to have some of the early plants in bloom. We have the grape hyacinth’s, some of the tulips, pansies, daffodils, one of the bleeding hearts and most recently the rose tree of China.

We’re just hoping we have some good days ahead to get out at the gardens, before the black flies and mosquitoes arrive.

I’m wondering how everyone else feels about gardening and how you’re coming along with your own gardening?
