I love your blog, and today's post is exceptional. So many beautiful shrubs and other types of flowers. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAugust is looking great in your neighborhood, Phillip!
ReplyDeleteWe're still house hunting so I live vicariously through photos of your garden. Since we arrived June 3 just after your June 1st garden tour, is there any chance you'll be doing a late summer tour?
ReplyDeleteArdith, I haven't planned any upcoming but you can come any time. Just drop me an e-mail (my address is on the contact page). Thanks!
DeleteOh, WOW! Wonderful garden, it is really exceptional. The picture with the heathers and the snapdragon has me speechless.
