I took some photos of the garden. The light here is so bright it is difficult to capture...

It isn't too bright to me, rather,a paradise.
Your garden is beautiful! I love the Jacaranda tree - are the blooms bell shaped? It is just stunning.
Thanks for sharing.
So now when I'm gone the jacaranda is doing its job? :p
Too lovely! I wish I could sit under it :)
Beautiful! It is rather chilly here today. I could cope with sitting in the sun under that magnificent tree. :D
Your garden is so pretty! I bet those purple rain showers are lovely, too.
WOW, that jacaranda tree is absolutely gorgeous!! I wish we could grow that in our garden too...... but I guess it needs hot Californean weather and absolutely no freezing (°C) at all....
I agree, that is a beautiful tree and I love that fountain.
Well, if that bothers you, you're welcome to move to Ohio, we don't have that problem here! LOL! your garden is lovely! I like the chapeau on your garden angel, too!Quote:

What's this word that I hear you using? Beloved? Could it be that our very own Sara is ever so slowly becoming a Californian and maybe her heart is not in Chicago anymore? :p Seriously, your garden is beautiful. I imagine it must be a great place to go to go relax and enjoy the view and smells (do the blossoms on the jacaranda give off fragrance?) and just unwind. I am thinking that Shirley might have liked such a tree to climb while watching the E's from a safe distance. By the way, where were the E's?
Everything Sara has in her garden is beautiful! Jacaranda's are in full bloom all over the city. Sometimes when you make a turn onto a street and they are in full bloom - it simply takes your breath away they are so beautiful.
I am getting such a kick out of the garden hat.........it was brought down to California by Slick from Canada - (she made that hat!) - I am not sure, but I think Karen from Scotland and Randi from Copenhagen got to wear it.
Then we brought it down to Sara's and Barbara from Germany wore it. It truly is the Pet Talk International hat.
What a beautiful garden and the tree is the highlight. I love the gorgeous lavender blooms.
