Wanna Take A Walk? Fertilizer Friday & Flaunt Your Flowers

This will be my first time joining in with Tootsie in the Fertilizer Friday and Flaunt your flowers posts! I am late, but better late than never right?
This is actually my best friends gardens.
Enjoy!
Wanna go on a walk with me in my best friends yard?
This is milkweed. They actually gave me some of this.
The butterflies love it.


Thanks to Vicki I now know the names of these plants.

This is Indian Pink.

Vicki & Eddie love natural plants.
They know everything there is to know about them. They have a great trail down in to their woods. They have a fire pit with chairs so they can enjoy family time.

This is Soloman's Seal.

I loved this bloom.

This is called Old Fashioned Columbine.

She said that they had just started on this one.

This is my favorite part of their yard.
I think it is beautiful.

This is a Oak Leaf Hydrangea.

Gerbera Daisy.


Lamium "Purple Dragon

This part of her garden is dedicated Vicki's mother who is in heaven.
Her mother loved frogs. The rose bush was also her mothers.
I thought this was so special.



I hope you have enjoyed our little walk. I sure did. Thanks Vicki & Eddie!

You weren't kidding when you said Vicki had a gorgeous yard!

Patty Sumner said...

Beautiful!!! Just a thought....you should plant some type of strong, flowering shrub in memory of your granny.......It would be great to watch it grow...

Beautiful. I loved the dainty yellow Columbine. That swing area is fabulous. I would spend waaaay too much time there.

What beautiful gardens!!! They look like something out of a magazine! Thank you for taking us on the tour and getting ideas for our own gardens. I don't think I have ever seen a yellow columbine, that is just spectacular!! I just have the pink and white here.

I have been slow getting around visiting. It just seems like my days are so full with all the outside work to be done in the summer. I refuse to quit my blog though, I have met too many wonderful people like you and I would miss everyone!

Take care Val, I am still praying!
