Friday Show and Tell – Garden Spaces at ORC

Show and tell Friday is hosted by Kelli at There is No Place Like Home.

Today’s post will be a bit different. I’d like to share photos of my garden and house exterior. These were taken a few years ago at the end of summer.

Looking at the photos ... Here is the front step and driveway garden which is all in containers. I have a difficult time with my back and can’t do all the bending I did years ago.

Going around the side of the garage toward the back yard

Along the side fence in late summer. The day lilies are barely still in bloom. The irises are done.


The past two years I did very little outside, but hope to do some gardening work this month, bit by bit, without overdoing it. I cannot afford to be laid up with my back when I am now taking care of my 89 ½ year old mother. But I plan to place colorful annuals among the established perennials.

This morning I spent some time working on the deck and also cleaning up the garden beds. The hyacinths are done now; tulips are coming now. The hostas are coming up and so are the iris plants.

Well, thank you for stopping by, and do come again. I would enjoy reading a comment from you.
