Ha, now the dwarf abelia hedge is apparent, below. You see my gate.
Glimpses, below, of the Bay Terrace. Shot pea gravel, adirondack chairs, terra cotta pots.
The street view, above, of my tiny sweet garden. Excepting the sky. As designed; I own the sky. Nothing tiny or sweet about that. .
Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

Pics taken 3 days ago. Wish I could say all of the above is original. Nope. Historical landscape design: ceiling (trees), walls (shrubs), floors (gravel), hedge, gate, axis, pots, furniture, bloom sequencing, scale, flow, color, focal point, textures.
OH - I love it! On Monday I turned down a Chinese Snowball because I didn't know what to do with it. . . .
ReplyDeleteI just gotta' keep remembering to treat all of the outdoors like a *room*. . .
Keep posting, I keep reading. And I need to pull out your books again!!!!!
Your gardens are beautiful . . . .
Hi Tara,
ReplyDeleteA couple of comments on my post re vanishing threshold indicate people on high, raised foundations have trouble with achieving it. Owning the sky can help. Any other suggestions?

Hello there Tara!
ReplyDeleteSpectacular is the word for your garden! Wow, I am fairly new to blogging, but I am sure to read your posts and weeding out others (no pun intended) that I'm not so drawn to. You inspire me!

Just a stunning firework of beauty.
ReplyDeleteSo where do umbrellas come in with vanishing thresholds??? Check out my post.
And thank you for sharing your sky so generously!
ReplyDeleteAh, I learned the name of this beautiful round flower ball and know exactly where to place them in my garden. Thank you. I spend many hours perusing your blog, learning from each and every one of your fabulous pictures, arrangements and principles.
ReplyDeleteMy garden is beginning to come together.
