We have had a busy couple of weeks visiting lots of local gardens. I think I have taken approximately 1000 pictures. While I work my way up this mountain of photography and confirm some of the planting details with the homeowners, I thought I would show you a quick preview of some of my favourite shots.
I love the back gate in this Brampton Garden.
One goose would have been lost. Three is perfect. The Gower Garden, Brampton
We saw so many beautiful roses.
Here is a flower you don't see all that often. Canterbury Bells, Spargette Garden in Brampton
What a pleasing arrangement of objects. The Singer Garden, Brampton.
It was hard to believe these homeowners had moved in only 18 months before. Spargette Garden in Brampton
Amazing color. The Spargette Garden
An original water feature. Ruttle Garden, Brampton.
A great mix of colors and textures. The Spargette Garden
What a pretty fern! Brillance Autumn Fern
If you are going to paint your Adirondack chairs, you might as well make them
an interesting color. The Singer Garden, Brampton.
Interesting couple. Fallopia Variegato and Hosta 'Sun Power'
When designing your garden, it pays to think in terms of creating little vignettes.

Easy to see why you selected these as your favorites. Thanks for the tour!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pics ! Thank you, for all those perfect pictures !
ReplyDeleteI'm convinced your part of Canada must be bursting with gardens!! They are all so gorgeous!! We have to be careful with honeysuckle here because it's so invasive. But I still love it! Great pix, as usual!!
ReplyDeleteLove the picture with the pink roses over the arbor. Spectacular.
ReplyDeleteYou've captured some very charming and beautiful moments in your photos of fine gardens....I do love the lime green chairs ;-). You had me with the Canterbury Bells..."that's an odd rose, it looks like bells" I thought. Just lovely.
ReplyDeleteJennifer, your photos are fantastic! The rose arbor is so special and I think that coleus is Trusty Rusty so striking!

ReplyDeleteOh, wow, if this is the preview, I can't wait for the show! Wonderful ideas here!
ReplyDeleteI just signed myself out by accident .....lost my comment. Love the plant combinations ....lots to look at. My favorite is that stunning arbor with the roses!

ReplyDeleteJulie
Breathtaking.What beautiful plant combinations.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photography. Thank you for the virtual tour, I enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteI wish my garden tours were full of so much loveliness Jennifer. We had some success but there are always hit or misses. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the pink roses over the arbors! Wow ~ that's breathtaking. I'm dying for those pink canterbury bells too. I have purple, lavender and white but not pink. Those are luscious. Now I have a new mission!
ReplyDeleteI'm also loving 'Sun Power' hosta! What a fabulous color. I haven't seen it here but it would sure brighten a dark corner.
Everything is really, really inspiring ~ did you come home re-energized???
ps My Adirondack chairs are painted that color too and everyone in my neighborhood can find my house if I tell them it's the one with the lime green chairs!!
Your photos are very lovely and these look like interesting gardens, but I wish I had not seen the peonies form the previous post first. Their beauty made it hard to see anything else clearly.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pics, I love so many things starting with those chairs (fabulous color) and the interesting plant combos. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat an absolute delight,that rose arbor is perfection and so beautifully photographed.
ReplyDeleteBlooming marvellous, I do especially love the geese.
ReplyDeleteFabulous!!!! Can't wait till the next "installment"!
