i have a flower garden dream...

This could be a list of fantastic words, but it’s not. It’s really the beginning (teehee!) of my ultimate dream garden. I am sticking to the outside right now. Eventually I’ll have lists for flowers in the pond, flowers inside, trees I want to have, herbs, and…of course flowers for the greenhouse! It’s become my new lil’ pornography, just imagining all these amazing flowers and thinking of having them around me every day…well every day in the summer at least. To help you imagine with me, I’ve linked images of some of the dreamiest examples of these flowers… C’mon everyone, sigh with me…

Mmmm... Pink Jasmine is one of my fav's. Peonies...sigh...and hydrangea (I love the ones that go from lime green to white to multi colored....that's hot, "yeah work it, just like that bitch!" I want to say to them....lol. My mother loves black eyed susan, so we have always been surrounded by them, those and all kinds of fuchsia.

Oh flowers... why you so good to me?

You're well on your way! I lifted us some nifty seed pods this weekend and forgot to tell you all about it. You're going to be excited!
