My Backyard Garden


Here are some pictures of my backyard garden.  This garden is two years old now and coming along nicely.  It is almost completely filled with perennials and I started dividing the daylilies this fall (Aug 07) to fill up other gardens.  

Early spring garden

Very Early Spring 07  A few of the shorter species tulips are strutting their stuff and there is a nice reflection going on in the container pond.  There's a lot of promise in this garden.

Unvarnished Garden - August 07  The plants have filled in and the trees are shading part of the garden.  The petunias in the containers are not doing well - too much water holding in the clay pots :-(  And I never seem to be able to put hoses away.
