purty.

I mean, yes you did!

Yes, you did...and it's breath taking!

It's always a treat to view pictures of your gardens. It's hard to even pick a favorite, they are all so gorgeous.

Marilyn

Very nice!! So pretty!
I love your winding path with the flowers on each side.
All the pics were great!

Haziemoon

Beautiful! Nothing brown and crunchy : ) Your lilac is awesome. And I have been wondering what angelica looks like : )

Libby!!! I am totally gob-smacked!!! M

That certainly is breath taking. Great web page. Lou

Very pretty! Thanks for sharing your slice of heaven with us.

What's the pink/red poofy thing in the last pic? Some type of rue/ Thalictrum?

Really nice-thanks again.
Grant

just beautiful.

Hooray for GOOGLE. Thank-you all for your replies. Now all you cottage gardeners can have your own web page (or more than one). It's soooo simple. Just create a google account and use their free web page creater. Free! Fun stuff.

Grant It's Filipendula rubra 'Venusta'. Nice and fluffy.

You made a webpage, and a beautiful one at that!
Just awesome. It really inspires me to get on the
ball with my gardens.

Libby - this is why I hate BC(kidding)....my only suggestion would be to label everything (that I can't grow)!!!

(only mildly annoyed) in Ontario!!!!!

Wonderful!!!

Now tell me, you are saving seeds for the fall seed swap!!!!!

Leasa

Libby, simply gorgeous especially that cute little creature you are growing in the `0th picture. Do you have any seeds for that one? *lol* Thanks for sharing and great job. Linda

Another beauty! How did you get everything to bloom at once is what I want to know! Every single plant is blooming in every picture! I would never leave home.

Lime

Libby - Not to be redundent, but it's breathtaking (Gasp).

Carol

What a delightful, colorful cottage garden. I am a tad green. Your pictures have inspired me to keep working in my gardens. I definitely need to add more color. Your garden makes me happy. Your kitty is a sweet addition to your garden too. ; -)

FlowerLady

Boy....did you ever....wonderful!!!!! I can smell it now!

So beautiful---wonderful garden!

Gigi

Your garden is gorgeous and lush! Hmmm, I just may bookmark your page for inspiration. :-)

Gosh, you cottage garden friends are a wonderful lot. I honestly posted the message only because I was happy I found an easy way to make a web page. Then here you all are with your flattering and kind remarks. THANK-YOU.

Remember, where I live is the reason my garden looks like it does. Do you realized how much I admire those who garden in more difficult climates.

It's not crunchy because it never gets too hot.
It looks full because there are many different plants. That gives me colour through-out the growing year.
In winter I get some flowers but mostly it's bare with only some evergreen perennials. It comes into it's own in Spring and carries on til late fall.

Reading this message board and see your pictures inspires me too.

Hi Libby and all,

Thanks again for the eye candy, and thanks for the ID on the Filipendula. Really nice.

Keep the pics coming.
Grant

Libby,
Your garden is really beautiful!!

Mo

Another 'OOOOOh' and 'AAhhhhh' here. How very pretty!

Libby, your garden is overwhelmingly beautiful! I'd love to have you post a list of everything you have in there for my future shopping ;)

MeMo

OMG! Speechless....

I definitely liked FELINUS ORANGUS the most!

Your garden is absolutely stunning - thank you for sharing and inspiring us.....
