Taking A Break....

  

The days are flying & life is getting busier than usual! The beach house needs to be opened up for the season & garden customers have me working like crazy almost every day for hours! I love it though, it truly is my passion! The grandkids need to be taken to tennis lessons & baseball games so I'm taking a bit of a blog break. I'll miss you all & will try to sit for a bit here & there and catch up on all your blogs. I will be back with pretty garden photos when things calm down & I have a few minutes to snap photos! Have a wonderful memorial day weekend & remember to give thanks for those who have served our country with courage~ see you soon! xo :)

Crazy Planting....

I'm off & runnning with a very busy garden season! Seems as though here in the northeast it's winter & then all of a sudden summer. Where did the springs go? anywho....busy, busy busy & trying to get everyone designed & planted before memorial day with my eyes on the night temps, just in case we have a frost & all my pretty plantings are cold & half dead! It's a crap shoot every year trying to get everything done for the first holiday of the warmer weather, but throwing caution to the wind with the sometimes really cold nights! Here are some of my fav perennials that I am planting like a mad woman, along with pretty annuals that just keep the colors going all season. Do you love these pretty blooms as well? what are your favorites? tell me! Off to bed for a 5am wake up call! LOL! Have a wonderful week & get your hands dirty(or your garden gloves) planting! xo

Monday Inspiration....

It's been a while since blogging. Vacation & trying to get back in the swing have tied me up for a bit. That & some much needed spring cleaning plus meeting with garden clients have made the days fly! Getting much more streamlined & basic in my decorating (especially for the warmer months) have me replacing needlepoint rugs with sisal & coir & going white on white to look clean & crisp for the summer. I'm back at it again with changing all the bedding & rugs in my bedroom today to pale blues & crisp whites~My camera is taking photos very grainy so until I figure out the problem (just a simple switch on it I'm sure) I'll post photos of the summer re-do. For now these wonderful flickr snaps are my monday inspiration~enjoy! xo
