To Be In Love With Colors???

One of the major things that attracts me to gardening is the variety of colors & textures…

And the way that people pull the garden into art - makes my heart feel like singing…

Gazebo Ceiling at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA...

This spiral design is just so absolutely beautiful and breathtaking…

Oh the textures…

Oh the layers…

The colors…

I took this picture with my Hipstamatic iPhone app (so the colors are altered by the "film" and "lens") as Chloe was pulling me through the Evergreen display in "what was the perfume display room for 2010 at Longwood Garden". I had but a few moments to pick up my jaw and hold up the phone to get this shot…

I've made it my twitter background…

Garden Stuff

I was trying to think of a name for this post along the lines of: End of March garden pictures of stuff in my garden that really has yet to find it's place or potential... But that was too long.
Then there things that I just see...


So here are some images of stuff from my garden:


Salvaged bird bath garden fairy.


Chimes from my grandmom's garden.



A few rusted hose thingies (put in garden in places to keep the hose from crushing plants as you tug on it...)



Cheapy supposed to be indoor, but has been outdoors for years, decorative gate (has yet to find it's perminent home in the garden...)



Some slab sculptures I made back in school while testing outdoor clay bodies (10 winters now!)



Nephew Dylan Halloween/Fall stick and twine sculpture...



Curly walking sticks (Chloe insists they constantly move about the garden)...



Leaning Pagoda, needs a better footer to rest on this year!



Terra Cotta pagoda that my mom gave me (was in our first house garden and traveled here with us)...



A small river rock which looks similar to a dragonfly wing...

These are just a few of the things out in my garden. Just looking around randomly, watching to see what will grow this year...

Thanks for stopping by! Make sure to stop back for another visit to see what is coming into bloom...
