All Gardening Is Landscape Painting

So said Alexander Pope. And how true! This little spot is
what you see the moment you walk into our gate. A cheerful,
colourful look was what I had in mind as I prepared the soil
for planting in November. Should I choose an assortment of
blooms or should I stick to just dianthus? Or phlox only?
I pondered... But later, I opted for a whole lot of colour
and I am quite happy with the outcome. The bees and the
butterflies seem to agree too!

The idea of the 'Tipsy Pots' on the left was taken from
Melissa, who has the most amazing pictures
and tips regarding garden junk/art. Many people have
asked me about this. I'm so thankful that bloggers share
so many wonderful ideas....

It also helps that I've got a new camera. Does it show?!
It's a new gift from hubby and I've been out in the sun
trying to shoot an elusive bee, after I was done with the
flowers! And then there was the moon in all its glory! Oh
wait, have I left the stars out????
