If you don't my blog, here is a quick synopsis.
- I live on 15 acres, which I intend to garden the whole thing.
- I have been gardening for 2 1/2 years and 99% of the plants you are seeing were not here besides Magnolia, beauty berry, grandfather whiskers.
- It will be called the Gardens of October (one day). I liked it because I liked the month but now I realized that is when it's truly good to be seen.
The lily field. I am gonna call this part of the garden Aunt Agnes' Lily field.
Yes, it's weedy. There are also wildflowers planted here.
I have discovered some are daylilies and some are regular lilies.
Tulip Trees
Confederate Jasmine is blooming. I put in morning glory to fill it in, until the confederate jasmine fills in.
The tail is 70 percent done. I have to do an outline with Mexican Heather. This year I used annuals until I figure out what I went in permanent.
Vinca
Marigold
Salvia
Wildflower area that reseeds ever year. It usually takes a bit.
Some are starting
Sulphur Cosmos. It usually blooms in October.
The peacock is huge.

I really enjoyed seeing your gardens...so much you have done in a short time....and so many hydrangeas and roses which are not blooming but one or 2 of my roses...love the lily field and the name you are going to give your gardens.
Wow! You have a big garden! Love your roses! And all the other flowers. Your peacock project is very exciting!
You are doing such a good job, 15 acres is such a big space! I absolutely love your peacock. You have done such a great job with it, and you can really see how it will look when the plants start to fill in!
I think your 'grandpa's whiskers' plant may be Itea. Does it lose its leaves in winter?
I hope that you are planting and weeding and just too busy to post. When you missed Wordless Wednesday I commenced to worry.
Looking back at this time last year, you were discouraged from all the busy work. You had Cody to help then. Is he available this year?
I am bowled over by your determination!I am dying to know where you purchased your beautiful statues???? (I hope that is not an improper question to ask on this forum) Cheers to you and congratulations on all your hard work!!!

Thanks all for your kind comments. At Nell, I have ebbs and flows...I was ill with vertigo this past week. Why I wasn't quite sure but I think it might have had to do with my not taking Mucinex any more. The pollen has been so bad these past few months and lightened up. Anyway, the room kept spinning most of the week. Better now. The Itea I do believe loses its whiskers during the winter. Can't be positive however.
