   Looks like a very satisfying view that you have from the vantage point of that dark blue (looks blue on my screen) chair. I know you have other seating opportunities but is that one your favorite? It's all very pleasingly colorful and I'll bet if the breeze hits right, some of the fragrance from the oriental lilies envelopes you in its delicious sweetness.

   In the eve. when the last bit of sun rays just gently filtered through those evergreens .. that is my fav. spot. Cool breezes and bird songs

   What a gloriously happy garden! It's so overflowing with luscious combinations, that I could see starting out with coffee in the morning and continuing my admiration with a glass of wine in the evening.

   So glad you sent in more photos. That's one densely-packed, floriferous display. Love a garden chock full of plants. So great to imagine I'm there instead of the icy-snowy day outside here in Ohio!

   Adeline!
   I LOVE how you've integrated container collections into y'all's permanent plantings! Not only does this practice give you more room to add more, but this also adds another layer of delightful detail and creativity to explore either in person or from an armchair! But, either way: With a steaming, creamy mug please!

    Thanks for sending more photos, Adeline. Ah, dreams of summer warmth and the riot of colour that it can bring! Now I'm curious about your winter garden.

   Unfortunately, I don't have many winter plant features.. rather stark. Working on that one. Am collecting winter garden ideas from everyone.

   You have such gorgeous summer borders that it would be a shame to remove some of those plants for more winter interest. Perhaps adding the winter interest in large, though movable, containers would help. Shrubs like Variegated Pieris, Sarcococca, Lemon-scented Cypress, Camellias, and Japanese Maples with yellow or red bark like 'Winter Flame' add colour and scent as do perennials like Helleborus. This photo was from my deck in January.

    Adeline, you certainly have created a beautiful peaceful looking place to sit and have a cup. I could almost smell those lilies. Are you enjoying this spring weather that we've been having the last few days? Sorry all of you in the cold parts of the country. I probably shouldn't have mentioned that:)

    Adeline, just a quick question....what is the plant along the path from your seating area to the lawn that looks like it is pruned similar to a boxwood hedge. It is only a short section, but very effective.

   adeline_kong 02/10/2016

   Connie, it's Euonymus, it's been around for many years, it was trimmed
   to form the sm. hedge as you see it.

   user-7007942 02/10/2016

   Thanks, Adeline. I've not seen a Euonymus used in that application. I live down outside of Seattle, so our areas are quite similar. Love what you've done with your yard.

    Really lovely Adeline, I love the curved flower garden bordering the grass. And love the "packed" in look and it really does squeeze out the weeds! You have such a beautiful, vibrant choice of flowers and thanks for sharing more photos.

    That's my kind of garden - flowers everywhere you look! Gorgeous. So much color and texture setting off that lovely lawn. Do you have a favorite flower? Or are you like me, never met a flower you didn't like!

   Shirley, that's me too..every plant and flower is a possibility in my garden
