Lush and lovely. I like the way the white hydrangea screams look at me in the shade. Love all the blue. I am still in my blue phase.
ReplyDeleteWow! Love this garden. The doors, seating areas, fab plants, the whole thing is just yummy. Clever use of the potted orange begonias to echo the colors on the house. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely small garden. I too worry about Houttuynia. It's usually bent on world domination, but seems quite controlled here. Thanks for the lush tour!
ReplyDeleteI know I saw this garden as well, a couple of years ago, when I saw Lucy's on a tour. Your photos of it are wonderful! I should look back over my pictures, I don't remember it being so lush and colorful.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I wish more gardens were this delightfully creative with color and plantings.
ReplyDeleteI had the opportunity to spend an evening here with the HPSO board when Fergus Garrett was in town last summer. It was magical! The interior of their home is pretty fabulous too.
ReplyDeleteThe front of the house is wonderful. I love the veranda and the eye popping colors.
ReplyDeleteImagine having a next-door-neighbor equally whacked out on plants...double the pleasure, double the fun!
