    There are two rows--the back and the front. The front is all one garden, the back is four smaller gardens. The other bed is up by the house--then there are 6 boxes/pots of pansies in the back--no pictures of those.

    The forget-me-nots are still blooming, so I planted around then as well as I could.

    The front corner--I've always hated this one--can never get it to look good.

    The front row

    Another garden in the back row.

    The front--over to the end.

    Your flowers are gorgeous.

    I can't believe how neat and tidy your gardens are. I can't catch up with mine yet. Haven't even planted much yet. have cut flowers a few times and brought them in.

    Love it! The blooming season is so short around here it definitely makes you appreciate it more.

    Now in upstate NY for almost 38 years, but grew up in California. They can keep the smog, but I would gladly give them some of the cold weather and snow in the winter! :thumbup:

    You take fabulous photos. Can't wait to see those wedding pictures! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

    Oh, how pretty! My garden is mostly vegtables right now, but someday I would LOVE lots of flowers!
