Sometimes, you just have do without - but not here; even in Winter there should be some color on the palette!
Fortunately, there is ALWAYS color in my garden.
Turning the corner, to look from the north-west, we start to see the first glimpses of the front of the house
Location 9 – The north-west corner – looking
east
Just watch the transformation on those 'Burning Bush' shrubs (center and right) - also on the Flowering Cherry Tree (left) - the Japanese Beetles just love its leaves in late June!
Late March (2014)
Late April
Late May
Mid June
A lot of bird chattering from that Cherry Tree lately and the flowers around the small lilacs are blooming
Mid July
Looks like its time to turn on the water hose - things are drying out.
Mid-August - the 'Alice View'
Mid-September
Back to 'normal' view - First Day of Fall
Mid-October
Watch for those bushes to start turning as if on fire!
Mid November
That's why they call them 'Burning Bushes'
Mid-December
The usual very colorful burning bushes became 'embers' very quickly this year
Mid-January (2015)
Sorry ladies - don't have all 50 shades of gray here!
Late-February (2015)
Location 10 – The north-west corner and house front –
looking south-east
The most shaded part of the garden – but lots of colors from flowers as the
year progresses - and there are those Flowering Cherry Trees again
Late March (2014)
Late April
Late May
Mid June
As the Cherry's leaves turn reddish, they'll be a haven for Japanese Beetles. Daisies bloom under the Ash.
Mid July
The pink Mandevilla vines on the porch pillars have take off like rockets!
Mid-August - the 'Alice View'
Mid-September
First Day of Fall - leaf colors starting to change
Mid-October
They call it 'Fall' for a reason - leaf raking time!
Mid November
A different view for a change - about 7:30 pm- with a dusting of snow
Mid-December
Not a leaf to be seen - except on the holly bushes and ground-cover
Mid-January (2015)
Believe it not, the sun did appear an hour or two later.
Late-February (2015)
Not a cloud to be seen
