Isn't it amazing just how fast things grow in the spring? Your yard looks like such a pleasant place to spend time. I hope you get to use that picnic table often! :)
The shrub in my side garden is Three-Leaf Sumac 'Rhus trilobata.' I got it from High Country Gardens. The awesome fall color it is suppose to get hasn't happened for me. I don't know if it doesn't get enough sun there or it's the soil or what, but it is an interesting shape and I do prune away branches that reach out into the path. I like how it fits in the space.
I am glad I made it here for the tour. Green is looking good there! Do you have bachelor buttons across from your vegetable garden? I don't have as many this year, but mine come up every year right in my vegetable garden. I'm thinking they may be considered invasive in some places, too, but my mother-in-law originally planted these there, and I am not going to stop growing them.

Ah, spring has sure sprung, hasn't it? Your gardens are looking great.
ReplyDeleteWhat are your trees/shrubs in the side yard? Their form looks interesting above the perennials.

DeleteI love the fact that you have no grass in your backyard. I seem to spend an awful lot of time edging my gardens and digging out grass. Beautiful spot.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Someday, I hope to lose the grass in the front garden too.
DeleteEverything looks wonderful! So much to enjoy this time of the year. I really enjoyed your photos.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is greening up! Looks great. Is that Dame's Rocket blooming here and there?
ReplyDeleteGood eye. Yes it is. It started blooming this week.
DeleteIt's looking great!! Your spirea looks great!!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing to me at how fast it all grows. Love all the gardens....the side one is fun:)
