My Summer Garden

Over at "A Cottage Industry"  Tracey is having a Garden Tourof many Cottage Homes in bloglandia.  I thought I'd join the tour and share a few of the foliage I have from my Gardens and Porch.  I already shared with you my  Herb Garden.  

Here is my Mop Bucket, full of fresh herbs for cooking.

A basket full of Exotic Inpatients on my Cottage Bench.

 Here is my iron wall urn with a fewsucculents.  Need to plant more to fill it up.

My beloved Lady Banks Rose..I'm trying to get to bloom again.  Any tips?

the French Lavender is looking mighty good.

My cute child's shopping cart in aqua blue.

My front porch "container" gardens.

  This white, wicker, hanging basket has the most unusual yellow flowers, there is like a cluster of four of them bunched together.

I forgot the name of this plant but I picked it up at Armstrong Nursery. 

Hope you enjoyed my Summer Garden, If you missed my "Hydrangea" tour go here.

Now go check out all the other beautiful gardens on the tour, I'm sure it won't disappoint, it will be like going on a "real live" tour in your neighborhood, even though it is the "internet" neighborhood.
 

Hope you enjoyed my Summer Garden, If you missed my "Hydrangea" tour go here.

What a fun way to beautify your outdoor living space. I love that you made your garden functional but it is still so cute. I am totally in love with the shopping cart picture. Where did you find something like that?

About the Banksia rose...It blooms only once a year in the Spring...Did you already know that and I'm just wrong to point it out? Or were you thinking it was one that would rebloom all through the season? I'm always confused by roses and which do what but this one I do know.

I love all your plants and the various containers that you've planted in. I didn't link up on the garden tour, but perhaps you'd like to visit mine. I always forget to plan ahead.

Cristina..I would love to come see your garden..when are you having me over? that is too funny, his and her gardens..that's a new one.

Does your wall ever stain from the my iron wall urn (succulents), or from the dirt? I've been wanting to do a wall planter/urn, but I don't want the wall to stain. Granted I can just hose it down when it starts... I'm just that lazy though. lol

Your French Lavender is looking fantastic! Mine looks a bit scrawny. I so need you to come over and give me pointers on what to plant. :-)

We plant all willy-nilly. Whatever suits our fancy at the time we're in the gardening mood. lol I just replanted "my section" of the front yard area. lol Yep, we divided it up into his and hers. Too funny.
