Garden Party

Fade Temmuz 15, 2022

Hello my friends, I have been looking forward to the opening of this fabulous 'Garden Party'

Carol and I are so excited to be joining the gals from

Thoughts of Home for this fun monthly link party.

Spring is my favorite season, and there's no place I'd
rather be than in the garden!

WELCOME

Pull up a seat, (well, maybe not this one); and stay a while!

This one might be a little better. And look at that ray of sunshine. Love it!

If you've visited my garden before then you know that there is always a lot of red going on. This year I am having fun working with a new color scheme. Our oldest grandson is getting married in our garden in June. His sweet bride has chosen aqua and coral for their wedding colors.

The cushions for our faux wicker furniture were five years old and not looking the best. I had them recovered in fabrics that would tie in with the wedding.

I picked up this wicker stool at a thrift shop and sprayed it coral. At first I thought it was a bit bright. But the pop of color is growing on me.

Saturday I attended the "Three Dotters' vintage sale and came home with this planter. The plants were the perfect color!

It's still early here in UT, so not a ton of color in the beds. However, my trailing plants are really putting on a show.

This candy tuft is so huge it hangs clear down to the lawn. Before it was in full bloom it looked like a heart.

My Weeping Crabapple is loaded with gorgeous pink blooms.

Lenton Rose are one of the first things to bloom in my garden. I have a pretty green one as well, but try as I might; I could not get a decent photo. They have a tendency to hang down.

Love the forget me not type blooms of Brunnera.

Another early bloomer and favorite - Pasque flower.

My 6 year old grandson, Jack wanted to know why I had a cage over my Delphinium. "Grandma just does silly things like that in her garden"

Sweet little Violets. Just realizing that I have a thing for purple. :)

He also was quite amused that I had plants in my boots.

I've been planting some of my containers, knowing that I can bring them indoors if we have a freeze. Very likely, because we're not truly safe until after Mother's Day.

I saw this one at our local grocers and thought the colors would tie in very nicely.
