It is said that gardens are a form of autobiography…
"...The most noteworthy thing about gardeners is that they are always optimistic, always enterprising, and never satisfied. They always look forward to doing something better than they have ever done before."
~Vita Sackville-West
The sun is shy today…
Perfect to let our hands get dirty.

I'll be getting out soon ... it's muddy and yuck-y, but it's gotta be done.
I love working in the garden. It's so much fun.
I love that your garden is returning after our frigid winter. I am still pruning the dead leaves and pulling out those charmers who did not survive. It makes me want to cry...
But...I have beautiful annuals to plant tomorrow...and seeds to sow.
These tasks would have been started earlier, but the pollen has been exceptionally bad and has prevented me from working in the soil.
Soon...

My goodness, how are you doing to take such incredible pictures?? The images are sooooo magical.

Oh, pretty! Those are some exotic-looking plants! Will head over and check out the interview, that's great!
Been out there for the last two weeks...clipping, trimming, vacuuming debris...it still doesn't look great. Maybe after a few more rains and the winter-damaged branches drop off, I'll feel better...
Beautiful pics, Linda. I just posted some flower pics from NY this morning! We're having some beautiful weather up here!
I love how you put that.."the sun is shy"! The new sprouts are coming up here in Ohio..everything is greening up! We need the sun to keep shining and warm it up a bit!
Happy Monday Linda!
I spent most of the weekend outside working on projects. Had hoped to do that today, too, but the wind is something fierce today!
Great interview that you did!
lovely garden looks divine
Oh my.......do I love your blog.
The color. The water. The sights.
I prefer flip flops to boots, myself.

Great interview too!

Gorgeous photography! I love gardening.
beautiful colors Linda. I had never heard this quote before, very nice. create I shall!
It's mid-Fall here Linda & I'm watching all my beloved trees losing their gorgeous cloaks of green. What a treat to see these beautiful blooms. I should heed V S-W's advice & not be sad, just look forward to the next stage of their life cycle.

That's where I have been out digging. What IS that first flower? Where can you grow it? Amazing. Your yard is just gorgeous.
This makes me wish I had a garden.
