My Oasis

Happy Saturday my friends!
I have been seeing more folks
post pics of their gardens,
so decided to show my own.


For those who dont know,
Bob made this trellis from 2 old doors.
My kiwi vine grows on one side,
honeysuckle on the other.


My birds nest yew.
Getting bigger each year.


Petunias, verbena and red geraniums.


Underneath my red twig dogwood
you will find my chocolate chip ajuga blooming.


More petunias.


I do not remember what this red flower is.
Supposed to attract hummingbirds.


My butterfly bush getting ready to bloom.


One of my hanging baskets.

This weekend will be a mild one.
The storms that rolled through earlier
in the week brought no power to both
my mom and sister.
We were fortunate in that we only had
one small thunderstorm...not severe.

Today I will be working our gift shop.
Again tomorrow.
Hopefully it will be a busy weekend once more.

My Oasis Blessings To All!
Janice

    Janice, I liked seeing your garden. The door trellis is nice. We had some big limbs to clean up after our storm. Had to use the chain saw. But so thankful none land on any buildings. Blessings, stay safe, xoxo, Susie

      Glad no damage was done other than the limbs falling down. Storms can be scary at times. Janice

      Well sometimes my green thumb turns brown as I lost my rhubarb and sweet woodruff. Janice

    Thanks for sharing your little oasis with us. It all looks lovely. Hubby is quite the handy man. I love that stone walkway through the trellis. So rustic.
    I'm sure the sales were great again this weekend.
    Hugs, Julia

    Beautiful blooms Janice! I have been very successful in "resisting temptation" this year...flower-wise. So I will have to try to appreciate and enjoy the perrenials I have (and that survived Nod's past winter...lost many again this year :-( ), I don't believe I ever saw that trellis that Bob made before...I love it! Happy sales tomorrow! ~Robin~

    The gardens are beautiful and Bob's creative arbor is weathering in beautifully. You should add your photo of your arbor to the arbor in the store so people can see how beautifully it works in. Hope you are working a little less and as always I enjoy the blog and your photos Have a beautiful week
