Venu, Very pretty, I can see why you like the June shot but I love your winter shot, too. From the look of your garden I would say that is a well earned "Humonus Horizontalis"
Gazania, Your side yard is lovely and I like how you have captured the same shot at different times over the season. I like to do that too helps a lot in making decisions about what to add or not.
Talking about garden tours, that is what I will be doing today. The Master Gardeners are opening their gardens up today for tours and we will be seeing several of them. Proceeds from the ticket sales will go to a good cause and it is nice to view private gardens.
This is my side entrance and parking area. You can see my motley collection of house plants on the patio to the right down a step to the shade bed, with bleeding heart, astilbe, hosta, heuchera, hellebore, lily of the valley, sweet woodruff a few left over daff leaves. This area is a working area as the potting shed is just to the right and quite there is a bit of a maze of pots and flats that I am working on. You can't see them now as most of them are just out of side behind the huge wisteria on the right. Those of you from the arbor thread have see pics of that wisteria. Yes, it is still sprawling as the trellis has been put on hold for later in the summer. LOL The stone driveway will get bricked when the trellis is built. There is a small bed on the right by the stone path that is the potting shed wall and the azaleas on the left. The greenery straight ahead is the forsythia I'm removing, it took me a while to decide as the forsythia did block some of the view from the road into my patio area. But really we get so little traffic and don't sit out on this corner of the patio that often.
