My garden. Uh oh pictures.
Edited on Tue Jun-12-07 01:47 PM by GirlinContempt
It's not very exciting, but it's my garden. And I'm very happy with it.
Building new stairs on the back prevents me from posting my kitchen garden, as it's a mess.







As long as I'm posting pictures, the construction across the road, while noisy, expensive and tree destroying, at least temporarily offers me a direct view of the river from my bedroom balcony.

3. Thank you!
It's a bit early in the season for lots of blooming (or tastyness), but I think it's pretty too :)

6. Thanks
Parts of it are a lot of work, and parts just do it themselves. Those ferns are indestructible

And I hadn't seen you around for a few days, and so I figured you were there.

14. Very pretty.
I envy you the ferns, I don't have any shade here for them.

Your iris are gorgeous. Mine bloom in March & April so I have none right now. Some of the rebloomers will bloom again in the fall though. :)

Edited on Tue Jun-12-07 03:22 PM by GirlinContempt
for the majority of the summer :) Though, actually not lilys, Hemerocallidaceae.
