Just a few pics of my flowers on my deck. My dad made me the gorgeous cedar flower chest, it's perfect next to my back door which leads in the breakfast nook and kitchen. I'm growing lavender, sage, and coleus this year. It's just starting. Mom has numerous herb plants which she will share once they are big enough. Ohhh, I can't wait!
Check out the fun zebra pot I got at a local flower place :)

I have to share my front yard. After 8 years of living in a cookie cutter house (first time homeowners) I feel my gardens are finally coming to life! I never grew a garden before and the knowledge I did have was from growing up in New York. We don't have dirt here in South Carolina, it's red clay. It's taken almost 8 years of mulching to get some 'good' growing soil! I wish I had gotten a picture of my southern version of a lilac because it was the first year I had buds after 6 painful years :(
I haven't gotten to our back down by the fence mainly cause it's huge and the dogs have a track back there from running back and forth. We have a horse farm backing up to us. It's nice to have them come visit for an apple or carrot. Drives the dogs batty!
