Plan on planting these flowers in it over the weekend.
While I was at the nursery, I had to buy a hydrangea plant. Hydrangeas are my FAVORITE flower.
I already have two hydrangea bushes around the pool area. Not sure where I will plant this one yet...but I do know that each year I want to add more. I could look at these flowers all day long.
The backyard is starting to come together.
We have owned this Japanese Maple for eight years or so. In the "old" backyard space, it used to be right up against the house. It was barely noticed. I love where our landscaper moved it. It is now a focal point.
You can see the Japanese Maple right behind the truck in this picture. It's so much better in it's new location. In fact, everything is. All of the landscaping was transplanted when we redid the patio. We really didn't have to buy much...everything was re-used.
My kids bought me this statute one Mother's Day.
The fountain will be cleaned and set up this weekend.
I'm looking forward to planting the rest of my annuals over the weekend and then on Sunday we are hosting a Mother's Day brunch at our house. How will you be spending your Mother's Day weekend?

Your gardens are just gorgeous! Love that japanese maple! Tomorrow will be filled with lacrosse games and a birthday party, but Mother's Day will be me staying in bed long after I want to be up so that the boys can make me breakfast in bed followed by the hubs taking them someplace so that I can spend a few hours in solitude. It's the one thing I ask for each year.
ReplyDeleteYour yard is just stunning and I love all of your gorgeous plants. The new planter will be beautiful with the petunias. I love that little boy and girl statue, how precious. Enjoy your Mother's Day. Hugs, Marty

ReplyDeleteOh Judy, it was another hilarious read through in your lovely blog world. As deep as I scrolled down your blog, I was getting impressed to see how you organized your passionate world with huge lovely and conducive resources. Each post is like a treasure. I also love hydrangea flower and I enjoy its blooming brightness. The most interesting remark is that your yard really got an awesome look that is able to snatch the rapt attention of any home owner. Anyway, can you please bring a new update about managing stormwater with rain barrels? Thanks in advance for your fascinating projects.
