SNOWS OF SPRING

My garden last spring. I garden for these moments. Designed? Yes. But really, who did the beauty? The unexpected moment? The surprise chair blossoms?

We see chairs glued with leaves, moss etc......for flower shows. This is Mother Nature laughing.

This looks 'natural' but it's completely designed. A backdrop evergreen hedge (camellias), deciduous flowering shrubs (hydrangeas) behind the chair, understory tree (Chinese snowball), a path to the right.

The white petals are from the Chinese snowball (Viburnum macrocephalum).
