After a few weeks of adequate rain, my garden is looking very, very nice (if I do say so myself). DH cut the lawn today, so I took a new picture of the arbor beds to show off his grass (he loves it if I mention his contribution on my blog!). He does do a great job and he knows how much the green lush grass contributes to the overall look.
Did you notice that the Sedum Autumn Joy is beginning to turn pink?

Good for you Zoey! I really have to spend some quality time in my garden soon.
ReplyDeleteLooking lush and beautiful. Tell your DH that I wish his love for a green lawn would rub off on my DH!
ReplyDeleteBTW, have you gotten your Breck's order yet or is it too soon?
I just finished a post about my DH and came here to find out your post about your DH and his grass. Pentti takes care of everything to do with grass (except pulling it out of the flowerbeds). The smooth green areas really set off the flowerbeds, don't they?
ReplyDeleteSabine, it is the same here. I don't even know how to turn the lawn mower on. There is nothing like green grass to set off the flowers. The whole month of July was ruined with my brown lawn.
ReplyDeleteDianne, no Breck's order yet. I expect it in mid September for my area which should be a fine time to plant them here.
Sandy, all the gardening work will be there when you are ready. I have to be "in the mood". Today I was. I decided when I hit 40 that I was not going to do anything I did not feel like doing (within reason, of course).
By the way, I just came from reading all of your blogs! Isn't it amazing--we are all in different states, different countries even--and here we are all doing the same thing!
I don't know how to start our lawn mower, either. I'm not planning to learn how ;-)
ReplyDeleteIt is cool that we are all into the same stuff. I look forward to hearing from you girls every so often. It's a nice positive gardening community this blog thing!
ReplyDeleteYour photos really bring your beautiful garden into my Australian loungeroom. I can smell those Buddleias from here.
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you, Alice. They do have such a sweet smell, don't they?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Zoey...I love it. I think that dh needs a big pat on the back...the grass looks Fabulous. LOL My sedum is starting to pink too. I love it. Thanks for the walk in your garden this morning.
