Ok, I didn't post last Thursday and I know it isn't Thursday today but I keep THINKING it is Thursday so I am going to post this today just on the basis of me being a bit late and a lot confused -- blame it on the allergy issues.
For the last several months, I have been joining in Jane's "A View from a Window" adventure and was very appalled that my "views" didn't vary, at least very much, until Hubs decided to do some re-landscaping and then things looked a bit different. We also have a new resident at one end of the bed -- a new crab apple tree. It is a lovely shape -- I hope it grows quickly.
This end is where he started and it is mostly finished |
The cannas, oregano, basil and ajuga seem to be doing quite well in pots |
Another mint bed -- he just could bear to throw all that mint away |
Pincushion plant doing well |
The lantana on the side of the house that has come up in an awkward place all on its own but we can't bear to get rid of it |
The other end awaiting new mulch |
Ornamental sweet potato vine -- I hope it does as well as my neighbors did last year |
More vine |
Husband battling the sage bush -- the husband won |
New crab apple tree to replace the sage bush |
You can barely see the new tree but it is there and isn't the new mulch nice? |
And to share some other photos -- the Easter Egg hunt at church was a huge hit with the shorter crowd -- see what you think
Bean assessing the situation |
Mom -- is it really ok to just swipe these eggs? |
Bit of a scuffle over an egg but Bean was a lady about it and then proceeded to give him several more eggs |
I don't know his name but his little brother was baptized earlier and his family wore traditional Korean formal dress |

And then there was the fog --
One way to try to hide the condo behind us |
And Target |
Kinda Spooky! |

I agree looking lovely. Do you rent your dh out? Could do with him in my garden........

Jane, thanks! He is now in the process of trying to get rid of some sort of spikey vine that keeps coming up. A challenge to be sure.
Gill -- I am thinking about it! Since his retirement he has done the landscaping, spent time "improving" the computer, gone back to changing the oil in the cars himself and doing a bit of cooking. He has decided he now has a few more marketable skills but doesn't know what to put on the business card!
