New Magnets Plus the Garden in June

[botias]

My new acquisitions! It's the usual mix of Nightmare Before Christmas pins and Disney pins celebrating vicious amoral thieves living the the 17th century, with my sexay poster of the solar system interposed between them and the steel they love so much. No blood blisters this time.






The poppies have turned into poppy skyscrapers and it's not really the look I was going for, but that happens when you try new plants sometimes.

That's beautiful, I dream of eventually having a garden like that. Maybe next year I can get started, but it'll take a lot of googling :D

Good luck! :) I do lots of garden googling. Phrases like: that shrub with the purple leaves that I saw once.

Your garden is looking fantastic! Go, you!

Thanks! If I can just quit putting pony-sized plants in the foreground, I'll really have it made.

Your garden is a terrific showcase!

Glad you like. :) I know I'm going to be tempted to post again when the poppies start to bloom in earnest.

With so many flowers there is bound to be show offs-every month!

It's absolutely beautiful!

I love the color of those poppies, and I love a that shot of lime green foliage - what is that? I use sweet potato vine for the same effect with pinks and purples.

I love the rocks, too. You'll see why when I post pictures of my garden.

Those mounds in front, including the lime green one, are different varieties of Thyme. I have a minor tendency to collect them.

Yes! Post pics please. :)

Your garden is so gorgeous! Mine is finally coming together, but I'm more the greenery type this year. And a bunch of hanging baskets, and more planters than I remembered. But it's finally nice enough that maybe my flowers wont die!

And I love the Nightmare Before Christmas magnets for sure! That dragon one is kind of neat too!

Good for you! I'm trying some more planters this year, but I have a dreadful tendency to let them dry out.

May fave is the pink, tattoo art one, I think.

Your flower beds are gorgeous! It really shows how much effort you put into them.

Thanks! :)
