I haven't done much outside this year,weather not helping.
At least that is my excuse.LOL
Last week, 1 day I did manage to redo the one flower bed,removed the rocks & put plastic down,then put them back ! Pic above. Hope it keeps the weeds down.
Another day I cleaned up debris & weeded the daylily bed,that is all I have done this season !

It just amazes me that the flowers aren't growing ,but the weeds are !!!!LOL

The picture through the window of my small pond that isn't finished.See the fish ?

Hope you all have a great day !!

My Country Gardens in the city of Sunbury,Pa

When we bought the house in 1992, there was only an edge along the side of yard w/flowers .So it took me about 3 years to turn it in to my country gardens.
My granddaughters said it was like a jungle ! LOL . That's ok,I still loved it.

When I decided I wanted to move closer to my home ,it was hard to leave the gardens,but I fell in love with this house ,pictured above !!

So now,I have started to work on this yard.I probably,won't have it that full again,because,it is to hard to keep up with it,but I'll have enough !!
The ground here is so hard,I have to work mushroom soil & mulch in to the ground ,so I could work with it. The soil in Sunbury,was like black gold ,everything grew !!!

Last summer ,I planted a DayLily garden over 100 kinds,sm.herb garden,sm.butterfly garden,I also put in about 50 kinds of Irises,Perennial Gardens,Holly bush,boxwood.1 sm.pond & I had tomato plants for the first time,in my life !! (I even one some ribbons at 2 country fairs, with the tomatoes ,flowers & herbs)I hope I remembered,all of the gardens.

This year ,I hope will be a beautiful display !!
I had to add pics of my strange,cute tomato ! It reminded me of ,(don't laugh),Duck's beak or ,like it had a bow tie on a RED SNOWMAN !!! !!!

I will add to it this year,if possible !
