We are busily packing away for our upcoming move, so I hope you don't mind visiting one of my past post!
With Mother's Day quickly approaching I thought I would post a blog post from my archives to share again......
........I was amazed at how many people were doing gardening on Mother’s Day!

........I was amazed at how many people were doing gardening on Mother’s Day!
Many told me that was their Mother’s Day gift from their family.
Apparently on the East coast they wait until after Mother’s day due to the weather conditions.
I
love this tradition, and like thinking about everyone digging in the
dirt, and planting pretty flowers for the upcoming summer months.
Today I thought I would give you a few images to inspire your gardening……
Not
all of us have the space for this wonderful fountain, and boxwood lined
path, but this totally inspires me to think out of the box, or in this
case boxwood!(sorry I had to say it.)
We
have all seen ground covers in the cracks of steps but I have never
seen succulents.
I love the textural carpet it creates and the varied
greens are beautiful. These will grow just about anywhere and are quite
hardy. Such a nice little accent on the steps.
This wave of pink, and white inspired me in my own little garden area by my front porch……
It
might not be as impressive as the very large expanse of space in the
inspiration picture, but it still gives me great pleasure when I sit out
on my front porch or walk up to my front door.
The
reason I am showing you my own little garden spot, is to show you that
you do not have to have the same amount of space or plants to still get
inspired to add some beauty to your yard.
Often
times we will look at something we love and talk ourselves out of even
attempting to duplicate it, because of size, space or monies. There is
always a way to add beauty to any area with some creativity and a little
bit of work.
