Notes From A Country Garden - Mid-May Garden Tour

Hello dear friends....  it has been a beautiful Sunday here in Indiana.

I wanted to share with you what is blooming out by the road.

This is another area that I don't take enough pictures of.

This lovely iris is blooming for the first time.  

Don't have any idea what its name is.

Full Tide Irises in the island bed.

Wow, that is a pretty surprise!  

Many irises are blooming for the first time for me this year.   

Okay, I have a special treat for you today... A new notes from a Country Garden video shot today!

Enjoy and Happy Gardening....Brooke

My Cottage Garden in FULL BLOOM!

It is balmy and grey this morning... but I just had to take 

some pictures of the rose garden in bloom today.  

Sorry a few  of the pictures look a bit foggy, 

my camera kept getting moisture on the lens.  

Yes, it is that wet here.  

Over 3 inches of rain this week and MUD!  

I almost slid down the hill taking these.  

But I just couldn't wait to show you all the color.  

If you have ever wanted to come out here and see the garden, 

this is the time.  

Now thru the end of May will be fantastic for blooms.

Enjoy....

My Cottage Style Rose Garden

Joyful Skies and Swingtown Irises

Rugosa Roses cover and hide my wing-walls.

Outta The Blue Rose in full Spring bloom.

This garden is three years old this Spring.

I added these tough rugosas because everything else would wash down the steep hill.  There are five plants here and they are four years old.

Mix of lovely bearded irises.

Peek at a few of my roses starting to bloom.

Overview of the back garden.

This area is fun to view from the deck and house as well.

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Gardening!

It's All About The Little Things....

Like a new garden accent to welcome your guests...

New buds on the roses....

A tea cup for the birds...

A bright pop of color...

An unexpected treasure...

A glorious bloom....

A peaceful moment in the garden...

Taking the time to enjoy the lovely month of May...

And the Spring Blooms...

Hope you are enjoying your weekend as much as we are here.

Happy Gardening....Brooke
