I bought a digital camera from my sister who bought a better one. What fun!!! Now I can take instant pictures of my dogs and my garden. Thought maybe you would like to see what I am growing this year.

You have a beautiful garden. Congrats on getting the digital camera--isn't it fun?
How marvelous!!! I love your containers. And two ponds!!! Be still my heart!!!! :) I will have my pond, one day. Do you have fish in your ponds?
Thanks so much for sharing!!!! I hope I will have a yard to brag about one day. I certainly don't now! LOL!!!

Your garden is so gorgeous!! :D
What a beautiful garden. I love the colors and varieties.
I have a black thumb when it comes to flowers. I do OK with veggies, but not flowers. And if we had ponds, I shudder to think what the doggies would look like!
This looks wonderful. The pavilion! And the ponds. Isn't this the best time of the year???
Yes, I love summer and all the gardening time it presents.
Actually I have 3 ponds. The other is a little one behind the gazebo. All have fish - gold fish that I bought as tiny little ones and are now between 8 & 12 inches long. I had two koi but they got huge and were eating the roots to the plants so I gave them to my sister who has ponds also.Quote:

The dogs are not allowed near the ponds except for Dazzi who is the only one who stays in the yard. The ponds are not in the fenced area that is theirs.Quote:

Oh, I just remembered. When Taggert was a pup, right after we got him, he got too close to the pond and fell in. We both were so startled, that I didn't give him a chance to see if he could swim. But what a time trying to get him out!!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful flowers with us. :)
Beautiful garden! Great photos..
What a nice retreat you have there. Very pretty! I love all those black eyed Susans. Makes me think of being in a field full of flowers. I also love the ponds. I have this mini indoor garden that I would love to turn into a pond. It would be quite the conversation piece. Unfortunately, I don't have the few extra hundred $$ I'd need to convert it. *sigh* I'll admire yours though. :)
Oh, your flowers are beautiful.:) Such a good mix of gorgeous
colors. It was a lot of hard work, Ill bet, but sure worth it. It all
looks so pretty.:) :)
i love the pics they are so pretty
my dog died a month ago so it's really sad loking at some of those pics:rolleyes:
What a lovely, lovely garden! A true labor of love:) And I'm with Logan re: the ponds....Be still my heart!:) Thanks so much for sharing your works or art with us. As an aivd gardener, I can appreciate all of the hard work you put in!:) And congrats on the digi cam!! Keep clicking!!!:D
Breezy...I'm so sorry to read you lost your dog:( Please tell us about him/her.
How wonderful.
Any chance you want to come to Australia to help me with my garden??? :D
Just send me a ticket and provide a place for me to stay and I'm there.Quote:
