Garden update...



The cottage garden I began working on in earnest last year has sprung back to life this spring. Itā€™s wonderful to see things green up, bloom and even show signs of new growth.
The climbing pink rose I planted along the fence last year has started to poke through and grow on both sides, just like I wanted.



My lavender smells wonderful all in bloom...


You can see I have some wild berries growing along part of the walkway. I think they are kind of pretty and I love that they just grew there all by themselves, so Iā€™m going to leave them. I suspect the birds and wind carried the seeds; some of these grow by the front porch as well.
The empty spot you see in the photo below is where Iā€™ll plant some zinnias ~ last year, they grew so tall and lovely all along the walkway.


I have planted a few new things in the bed on the other side of the walkway ~ that side gets much more shade, so its requirements are a bit different. Iā€™ll share some photos of my new additions another time.


Wishing everyone a lovely day...

    Flowers certainly bring beauty to our lives, don't they?
