Spring Garden and the Final Stages of New Construction

Hi Everyone! Hope the summer is going well for y'all. I've been trying to catch up on our landscaping since I kind of neglected it last year with the construction finishing up. I haven't been creating any new projects as of yet since working in the garden. I recently got invited back to the Town's Apple Festival coming this September. The next few weeks I will be making things to sell at the festival..  I thought I would share with you my spring garden and some other projects we have going on.


This is part of  my perennial garden with a view from back deck and kitchen window. These are the spring colors and the same area changes with new colors in the summer.

Happy Halloween Driveway Decorations

Wishing everyone a safe and Happy Halloween.  Normally I don't put up a big display of Halloween decorations, but this year we are in a contest.  The contest is through North Reading Parks and Recreation in our town.  You can buy the starter kit for $25, which is just a face painted burlap head with 1 x 4 in the shape of a cross for the body. Since it's through the parks and recreation dept. in our town, I thought our display would be fun for kids to see. I made the minions with Gru who looking to go to the pumpkin patch in our town.

Country Style Gardening

Good Morning,
Happy Mothers' Day today.  I will be out in the garden planting this pretty pink Mophead Hydrangea from my boys with a country style twist before the rain rolls in.

I think it will be a nice touch to add this bright pink hydrangea to the front of the house where the property opens up as you come down the long driveway.  Just on the other side I planted a crab apple, which will make a nice combo for the garden.
Since I don't have Osmocote, a slow releasing fertilizer, I will be using a 10-10-10 fertilizer with this hydrangea.
Check back in later to see what I've done with this hydrangea and for some curb appeal ideas for you home.

Enjoy your Mothers' Day!
