| This is the front yard - along the street. |
This garden is in a gated community, and I wanted you to see how vegetables can be grown, even if one doesn't live in the country. Most of the plants are edible. I love the use of red mulch and pavers, as well as the use of in-ground and container plantings. The garden is neat and compact on a relatively small lot compared to the other gardens we visited on the tour. The gardener uses every inch of space to the very best advantage.
| The pavers are decorative and functional. |
| You can see how close together the homes are in this subdivision. |
| I love how every inch of space is used |
| I like the use of siting areas in the middle of a vegie garden |
| Lovely use of the pavers, don't you think? |
| Cabbages, cabbages....yum, yum, yum! Speaking of growing your own food, I read a great quote today:
You are what you eat
So don't be
Fast, Cheap, Easy or Fake

Hello Gail, I am the homeowner of this property. I just stumbled on you site. Thank you for doing such a beautiful job with photos. You captured the event beautifully. I am having trouble with HOA wanting me to replace all that I've done and put grass back. Fining me 50$ a day since Dec '13. If goes to court may I use your post. Thank you again Maryann 655 Limerick Drive
ReplyDeleteSure, Maryann. I hope it goes well for you. I don't see how they could thinkit was in any way detrimental to the beauty of the neighborhood. I call it an asset.
ReplyDeleteThank you again. I love your site. I will keep in touch and let you know if anything 'happens' :-)
