  1. Your garden is beautiful and your season is WAY ahead of ours. We’re just getting in a few cold weather annuals but I’m looking forward to seeing them spread. Thank you for sharing your gardens with us.

  2. I laughed when you said, “Strange name, huh?” Not that you said anything funny. But because in Canada we would have said “Strange name, eh?” “Huh” to us means “what”, as in, What did you say? “Eh” is what Canadians are renowned for, and it is said daily in all conversations…”Hot out, eh”, etc. Etc. As well, we are known for our “Sorry”. We all say it daily to anyone or anything. To the dog, to the fridge we might bump into!. It is a constant in our vocabulary. SNL and others have poked fun at us for both eh and sorry. It is just a habit of our vocabulary.

  3. I love all the pictures of your beautiful patio garden. You are definitely the master of your garden.

  4. Brenda, I enjoyed all the photos of your patio garden but the photos of the Johnny Jump Ups in those colorful pots are just gorgeous! Thank you for all your posts!

  5. Brenda, so lovely! I’m glad you created such a beautiful garden for your enjoyment and ours! Love your photos. Thank you!

  6. Beautiful color everywhere! I’m still waiting on seedlings to bloom – marigolds, hyacinth bean & some others. Waiting is soooo hard. LOVE that quote!

  7. Your patio garden is so beautiful! I wish I had your talent Brenda! I do not have a green thumb at all! My daughter always buys me flowers for my porch for Mother’s Day. She buys two hanging plants and flowers for the railing boxes. Last year I had to bring all the plants inside because we had frost at night, so this year we are going to put off buying the flowers for a week or two! It was a shame that you had to pay your maintenance man to cut the daggers off the driftwood. It would have been nice if he did it from the goodness of his heart!

  8. What a colorful and beautiful garden! My porch hanging baskets and window boxes are looking very nice.
    I have hungry deer to contend with, so I have to be careful what and where I plant flowers. I miss purple coneflower, black eyed susans, day lilies, hollyhocks, tall phlox, zinnia that I used to grow. Over the years as food got more scarce for the deer with building progressing, they took to eating them. Now they will
    completely eat them down to the ground. I have a little area by a wooden privacy fence thatI am thinking of fencing in a bed with wire fence and planting my old standbys. It’s a small area, but at least I could then plant seeds and flowers and protect the from the deer. I’d still be able to see the blooming flowers through the wire fence and finally have cut flowers for my house again! Hopefully, I will have pretty blooms like you have now on your patio garden!

  9. There is so much beautiful color and joy on your patio. It doesn’t seem it could grow any more gorgeous, but every time you show it to us, it DOES!

  10. From your pictures everything looks so cheery and relaxing to look at, have a great day
