Can you name a private garden? Seems somewhat haughty....I think I am just giving it a theme. Some people have ranch's that they name....so why not a garden? One day I want to name mine to be called "The Gardens of October. I mentioned that in a previous post. Someone said you could, absolutely....
Why, the Gardens of October? Because I love October to be honest. My gardens were never prettier.
Here are some pictures of last year.
I have good elements for it.
- A creek
- A cemetery next door
- Spanish Moss
- A swamp (I don't have a picture)
- Bats (it's hard to take pictures of bats)...I call them all Milo though. I always seem them at dusk. Would like bat houses.
- A love for "spooky" things. I lived in Louisiana for at least a quarter of my childhood.
- Oh and did I mention I love October.
So if that is what I will call them one day, then I will gear toward blooms for that month. Although, wouldn't it be neat to have beds for each specific month? Next year, I am doing the huge peacock topiary but the area is approx 2 to 3 acres, with three spigots and of course the creek runs the whole property. That is something to consider.
