After the Rain

 We finally got a nice heavy rain last night.

 You could almost see the gardens plump up like a sponge. (The candy corn vine)

 Lots of clematis blooms.


 Teddy was not happy that her patio was damp when she went out this morning.


 I have lots of little green tomatoes now.

 The Oakleaf Hydrangeas are blooming.  My allergies are about to be very bad.

 I haven't decided what to do with this greenhouse yet.  I need to paint it and then I will figure out what to do with it.


 Hmmm...what is that little cream spot by the boxwoods?

 Teddy!


I love wind chimes and have them all over the gardens.

You have the most beautiful house and gardens. Like living in a park.
And then there is the most precious Teddy. Certainly the queen of this castle.

I know what you mean - we have finally had good rain and it's like the garden is finally letting out its breath! Teddy is so fluffy and gorgeous!

I figured out what is that makes your garden so unique, its the fact that it looks wild and planted by nature but yet it looks planned and so beautifully structured, its wild but tame,
I know I make no sense,

I'm really glad the rain came,

I like the layers in your garden. As if nature intended and yet I'm sure the result of much planning and hard work! Nothing like a good natural rain to help the garden. Poor Teddy!

It looks so beautiful in Your garden! Rain, even little of it always make the plants grow much better and look so beautiful.

I thought my tomatoes might have met their death this morning since we had frost and it feels like we'll have it tonight again.

Have a great day!
Christer.

I repeat myself, but I envy you for such a beautiful garden. And your gardening skills. My parents have clematis at home, they cover the walls of the house. Absolutely gorgeous.

Just beautiful. You know, your wind chimes make me think, I love the 'one' that we have on the porch at the farm (ha) but I always associate wind chimes with porches...never thought about just having them scattered around the property. It must sound lovely! Thanks for the idea!

David has said that if I buy one more windchime he would divorce me. Aahahaahahahaaa! Poor man.
I love your garden. It's so lush and beautiful. I bet the plants made a collective sigh with the rain. I tried to send the rain sooner, but I was busy.

It clouded up, got cooler after being 105 for several days...then it all burned off and not a drop of rain fell. It's so sad. I'm so glad your lovely gardens got a good watering. It's all gorgeous. Honest...I'm trying not to be jealous..or is that "envious"... :) Well..I'm glad someone is getting a bit of water...
All those pretty new plantings...and those ferns!
Just so lush and pretty.

Nothing like a good rain to leave a garden very happy!
At least the dampness was a little cooler for Teddy to go exploring.
