Hey there!
Thought I would share a quick little summer garden tour of our Carolina home.
Note…
not a lot of flowers, because
as many of you know…
I am not a green thumb.
It’s actually hard to believe my window boxes are still alive, or I should say the flowers planted are still alive.
I suppose with all this rain it has helped.
That is Jasmine btw growing up the middle.
Been there for about 6 years and it really loves the full sun.
I let nature take it’s course.
My husband has to trim it some.
Japanese Maple, doing well.
The IVY in the URNS have been planted for at least 3 years.
Stuff won’t die.
These urns were originally black and I painted them with Annie Sloan chalk paint a few years back.
Another paint job holding up pretty well.
This I believe is called creeping Jenny. I planted it around 4 years ago, and this is what it is doing today.
You may remember my garden bench that I spray painted.
It was originally black, then this yellow
and now currently blue, which is my favorite color.
I am thinking it needs a refresher soon.
Just not sure on color choice yet.
Out the back here,
we planted these cyprus trees last year…
those too, doing well.
{Yes, that is a diy pizza oven}
I do OK with green stuff, can you see it’s a pattern…
all things green I can do!
BBQ anyone?
It has been a few years now since we have done the Stamped concrete.
Holding up pretty well.
Although we do need it sealed this Fall again.
I bought two of these cute solar knomes at the drug store.
I believe for 12.00 a piece.
They work pretty well too.
We will be restaining this side deck here shortly.
Hoping to try the new Rust-oleum Deck and concrete restore.
Heading to the top deck now…
The petunia’s, well, they’re OK…
not dead yet, but not great either.
Sorta thinking I should have not gotten a green umbrella too this year…
this is a whole lotta green.
Thanks for stopping by today.
Hope you enjoyed my Carolina outdoor garden tour.
without many flowers:)
