In answer to Fiona's question
over on her WOWH blog Sharing Thursday: Show us your garden.
Here is what she said-
I'm very nosey. I'd love to see your garden. Share a photo or two.Write a few small stones. Write a descriptive piece.Tell us what you love about it, and what you hate.
Tell us how it looks in different seasons.I'm sure we'll have a great selection of gardens around the world to have a look around... big or small, humble or fancy, flowers or vegetable.
Serendipitous - I found a small stone for today in the garden-as the world came into focus upon waking. It is cool enough to have the windows and doors of the bedroom open to the small but lovely garden. The garden I share with my husband is a very small walled in area that we have tended for over 20 years. A little man made pond sits in the back corner, the waterfall draws birds, frogs and dragonflies. There are dwarf evergreen trees, several varieties of small Asian maple trees and lots of flowers that find ways to thrive. A statue of Buddha happily shares the garden with St Therese, Winnie the Pooh, a geisha and an angel. It is a lovely place with stepping stones that lead to shady spots and a purple bench. There are weeds hiding between the cardinal flowers and they don't seem to mind. I try to not let it bother me either. I love that garden.
