A Garden for all seasons

Gardens should have four-season interest, don't you agree? Here are a few photos of mine in the four seasons of the year.

 WINTER - VIEWS FROM ABOVE:






SPRING:



We call this area the "hosta farm."




SUMMER:

 One of my favorite flowers:  Echinacea

Lavender


AUTUMN:

 Deep red of a dogwood tree and brilliant yellow/orange of a maple. Autumn is so glorious!




 Morning glory 'Heavenly Blue'






There are seasons of our lives, too. Days become weeks, months, and years, and suddenly we find ourselves aging. Perhaps we wonder where all the years went.  One thing is sure, life moves on; time flies by more quickly than we think.  Cherish each day. Really LIVE each day. Don't put off the things you want to do, and the things you want to say. Life is a precious gift. Make the most of it.
