Garden pictures



Ok, so I'll put some before pictures of our garden - it was overgrown and a nightmare before we moved in. And I'll attach some after pictures now, and add more once I get the most up-to-date ones.
Before: This is where Martin & my dad put in a patio last year 5 weeks after Jacob was born.
After: Isn't it gorgeous? We're having sod laid tomorrow to make it complete!
Above both: at the side of our house - this is after we started putting in a flower bed there - the old gnarly shrub is a trumpet vine, and in the foreground is the first of 6 tree stumps that were along there, which we dug and cut out. It's now a fabulous flower bed and I'll post a picture of it once I take a good one.

Thanks Alchemist! Yeah it's awesome to have the patio but a slab of concrete can become an awesome container garden... I love annuals because they grow like mad. My very first garden was on a porch 3 floors off the ground, and I couldn't believe it when I looked out and saw hummingbirds drinking out of my nasturtiums!
