| My planters are starting to fill out. |
My driveway in bloom.
I guess I am still collecting witch items. I found this old chalkware matchstick holder on ebay.
She has the best witch face. It is going in the guest house.
She will hang right next to the fireplace and hold matches like she was meant to do.
I plant herbs in with my flowers. This planter holds rosemary and sage.
My bay tree is growing like crazy. I love having my own bay leaves. I do not like houseplants but this comes inside to winter over each year.
This sits between my garage doors. Have you ever seen those commercials about broken springs on garage doors? The other day I opened one of my garage doors and a bolt fell on my head. I inspected the door and found that the main mechanism was pulling out of the wall and actually had cracked a board in half. I immediately called a garage door company and had them come out to fix it. The workman told me these need to be inspected and lubed each year. Plus, now the doors open and close like they are brand new. Live and learn. I hadn't even thought about them in the 15 years since they were installed.
Tomatoes!
The candy corn vine has reached the top of the pole. I can't wait for this to fill out for Fall.
This planter is in partial shade and is growing very well.
Honeysuckle growing up my downspout.

I've read that about garage doors, they can be deadly dangerous if not checked every year. I would have done like You though, once installed and I would never think of them again :-)
I actually have a few tomatoes now but they are still small as a finger nail :-) :-) :-)
Thunder here today and now the air is fresh and cool again :-)
wonderful matchstick holder!
Have a great day!

I like how the witch's face has a different expression from the different camera angles. She's very cool....
A visit to your beautiful backyard always cheers me up, Jaz :}
Someone was watching over you...

I can't wait to see your candy corn vine in the fall.

Seems so weird seeing your garden blooming where ours is going to sleep.
Your garden...when I remember all the snow not so long ago and how every year it becomes so beautiful once again. Gardening is so very good for the soul!
Oh that witches face is lovely isn't it? I usually don't care for the old, ugly, witch stuff. But she is old but NOT ugly. !!!!!!!
Tomatoes! My poor hubby is just planting his! -grin- Well, he likes to grow them from seed and so that's why he's late. Whatever is fun for him. :-)
I will be listing it on ebay later this week (Thursday evening) and my ebay id is: virgosign
