This week’s theme – Things that Grow.
If you have been to my house, you know that I have a really small yard. Super small and yet I have a love of gardening. I admit, I have not planted like I used to since Owen was born. The image above is the view from my screened in porch – the porch screen is the texture on the image. These climbing roses were planted about four years ago and have grown so much. I love them but I wished they bloomed a little bit longer.
Lavender
These are called Belinda’s Dream and I ordered them a few years ago from Witherspoon Rose Culture. I absolutely love them – they are beautiful in vases.
The best thing about my Irises is that they are reblooming. They bloom in the spring and the fall. I ordered these online from Schreiner’s Iris Gardens. The one on the left is Queen Dorothy, which is my grandmother’s name. She also had a love of gardening. The iris on the right is called Immortality.
Things that will be blooming soon – my peonies and my hydrangeas.
My little gardening helpers.Boy, do they love each other!

The roses are so beautiful. How sweet that you have one with your Grandmother’s name.
I feel I should sit down with a glass of lemonade and look at your flowers. Beautiful.
What a beautiful texture in your screen – the roses are lovely! I also love the last one, so cute!
These are just beautiful!
Beautiful! You have so much growing right now–I’m feeling inspired to get into the garden this weekend!
Your helpers are just about the cutest I’ve ever seen!

These photos are beautiful. I love the soft colours in all of the images. Nicely captured!
So pretty! Those roses are gorgeous. I’ll have to investigate further next time I’m over!
