Proud to be an American

Starting with nothing but bare ground in April 1998, My yard has gone through two landscaping projects.  I keep finding new ideas to try.  These photos are from the Summers of 1999,2000,2001,2002, 2003

We have wooded acreage to the west of our backyard.  Lots of shade in the afternoon makes a comfortable retreat on a hot summer evening .Summer 2000

Star jasmine and white clematis climb up the arbor as you enter the rustic cottage garden. Old wheelbarrow beckons a look (Summer 2003)

A little brown bear rests on a log underneath the lavatera, hollyhock and foxglove

Here is our new "baby" Angel who was abandoned in the cold and rescued when she was barely 4 weeks old. She was very ill and malnorished, but with lots of TLC she happy and thriving. She is now three years old and still very small. We learned that she is somewhat "dwarfed" due to the rough start she had. Sbe is my special "Garden Angel"
