With a new home comes a new garden. I miss all of my gardens at my former home but I am finding new peace in my fun and English style container garden.

One thing that I do not miss about the old gardens is the level of upkeep. It was a lot of work to get the beds started at the beginning summer, maintaining over the summer months and finally breaking everything down late fate.

This new space is probably more my speed and I can have a different look every year. So far, I’m off to a great start in my  little lush oasis.

Pictured here in order: Calla Lily, Hibiscus. Petunia, Hen & Chicks, African Daisy, Icelandic Poppy. And all of these were taken with my iPhone 4…. Crazy right?
