You early bird! I was opening one eye at 5:45 knowing I 'had' to get up by 7:15 or so (for a funeral). Great header! It makes your blog even more special as you made it. Have a great weekend.
I love how the early morning mist gives it an fairy-like appearance. When you say you haven't been doing much in the garden, I was imagining mostly piles of leaves or something, but this is lovely!
Oooh I love your new header!! Your flowers are really opening up now and everything looks just gorgeous! You've got the greenest thumb I've ever seen around! hehe xox
Your gardens are beautiful! I really like what I've seen of your design. I, too, like your new header - very dynamic. Can't wait to see those poppies in bloom.
I appreciate you taking the time and effort to leave a comment. I will try to answer any questions you have. Please note due to Blogger changing word verification so almost nobody can read it, I have had to change to no word verification and only allow registered users to comment.
I am so glad you stopped by to visit my garden. I garden in lower northern Michigan (zone 5) in far less than ideal conditions. I have too many pine trees, too much shade, too many rocks, herds of hosta-munching deer and rabbits who think my lilly buds are gourmet appetizers. I am by no means an expert in horticulture or garden design--just an amateur with a shovel and a passion. My garden changes daily during the summer and I will be updating frequently.
During the winter months, I blog about my favorite cold-weather hobby--quilting and just my everyday musings.
I hope you enjoy your visit, and that you will come back soon.
