The Garden Shines On and Is a Spot of Joy During Busy Times


DSCN0870
Hello all! I thought I'd share some of my garden with you all today. This is the old garden called Tiger Gardens. I have moved a LOT of plants from it already but there is still so much to see and grow that you can barely tell I've moved any plants. One thing is for sure tho, the weeds love to move in to the vacant spots. Despite this and neglect, it astounds me how plants just keep trucking along with no help from the gardener whatsoever. Don't you sometimes feel like your plants will not bloom if you don't tend to them? Well, this post is proof positive that it is not so-the flowers still bloom despite us. This is an amazing thing about plants and life in general!

The crossvine arbor used to be a crossvine/gelsemium arbor, but obviously crossvine won that battle and yellow gelsemium faded away. The crossvine has exploded with orange blooms. This cultivar is 'Tangerine Beauty'.
