As I sit on the back porch having morning tea, the shady backyard beckons me. | ||||||||
I enter though the Arbor | ||||||||
New Dawn Rose planted to scale the arbor (someday). | ||||||||
Down the woodland path... Along the trail, a swing offers a respite from the baking summer sun. |
||||||||
I continue to the shade garden | ||||||||
"Aside from the Garden of Eden, man's greatest temptation took place when he first received his seed catalogue." Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |
||||||||
Hosta, Ferns, Astilbe, Caladium, Japanese Forest Grass, Celandine Poppy, Leopard Plant, Hardy Begonia, Wild Gingers, Toad Lily .... |

My journey then takes me back to the porch borders. | ||||||||

THEN TO THE FRONT -- In my small amount of dappled sun each new day comes bearing its gift - new daylilies in bloom. The various varieties start blooming in sequence and each morning I go out with eager anticipation. | ||||||||

WE COME FROM THE EARTH, WE RETURN TO THE EARTH, AND IN BETWEEN WE GARDEN. |
