A Peek at the Blooms in our Yard

We have been so blessed by inheriting a master gardener's yard. I don't think there is one non-blooming thing planted...even the trees are showing off gorgeous blossoms.

Azaleas

Dutch Iris

Chinese Fringe

Jasmine

White Dogwood

Yellow Lady Banks Roses

Narcissus

Japanese Maple

Pink Dogwood

Some of those have faded and new things are blooming now! Unfortunately it's not just the flowers that are thriving. The weeds seem to love this soil too. So if I gave you the full view...just to keep things real, you'd see this: OVERGROWN MESS!

As well as a dismantled play system that we finally got out of storage. Jerry got it pretty much put together this weekend...just in time for the rain and cold to set in. Boo!

Oh and the tour wouldn't be complete without a shot of another overgrown flower bed that the cats have chosen for their litter box. Lovely.

Of course I did say I wouldn't care where they went, at least I am not changing a litter box anymore. A neighbor just told me about Critter Ridder which I will be putting down soon. I love pulling weeds, but I think running into "litter" would take all the fun out.
