We were just in Ottawa today, and I was admiring some of the front lawn gardens...how inspiring to see so many lovely lawns turned flower gardens!<br />I'm with gardenmama...we're slowly working on getting rid of the grass, adding more garden space every chance we get! My favourites are Spike Speedwell (aka, veronica), Sedum, Salvia, Black Eyed Susans, and Bee Balm...I fit those into every flower bed on the property...then we have our 2 huge veggie gardens on the hill, as well as a squash patch by the house, (formally lawn), and soon we're adding a raised bed garden by the house for greens...we're on 1/2 acre, which isn't much by country standards, but we sure do alot with what we've got!!!<br />Keep your thumb green!!!<br />maureen :)TwigandToadstoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03408437451671761958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073759137184866422.post-23316477998634018772010-06-28T23:01:04.160-04:002010-06-28T23:01:04.160-04:00Delphiniums (see my banner!), primroses, tiger lil...Delphiniums (see my banner!), primroses, tiger lilies, lady's mantle...beautiful contrasts of blue and yellow/orange! People who have little urban gardens dream of big rural spaces...but I love the look of your lovely flower-yard! We have far too much grass to mow, and yet no time to turn it into gardens...check in with me in 15 years!The Knitty Gritty Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02890656094078973552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073759137184866422.post-56037266963521728262010-06-28T21:04:46.574-04:002010-06-28T21:04:46.574-04:00I love the last photo, so beautiful.
We are slowly...I love the last photo, so beautiful.<br />We are slowly turning every square inch of grass here at our new home into gardens.. The bee balm is so pretty, ours just bloomed in the past few days.gardenmamahttp://www.gardenmama.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.com
