It's nice to have your pond and waterfall near the deck to appreciate it. We always sat up high on our deck and then I had hubby build a covered area by our pond so we could sit 'in' the garden for a change.Judith @ Lavender Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16361061491506137380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-9325764079654733752013-05-26T08:04:40.167-07:002013-05-26T08:04:40.167-07:00Donna, I do think my photography does make the gar...Donna, I do think my photography does make the garden to be bigger than it is in reality.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-18767348756106807062013-05-26T08:01:45.498-07:002013-05-26T08:01:45.498-07:00I like to present gardens other than my own to kee...I like to present gardens other than my own to keep things interesting for myself and readers too. I always learn so much from other gardeners! I have been bold enough to knock on the doors of perfect strangers and ask if I can take pictures of their garden. So far the gardeners who I have met in this way have been very kind and generous. I also photograph gardens on tours.<br />Sometimes the homeowner of a garden on tour is not even present during the tour. In the case of this garden, I have been there twice and have chatted with the gardener. <br />It is good to have your feedback Helene. I sometimes included a background on the gardener and their garden and will try to do so more often in the future.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-60615380585307825922013-05-26T07:49:28.951-07:002013-05-26T07:49:28.951-07:00Hi Jason, I blew up the image on my computer scree...Hi Jason, I blew up the image on my computer screen and I believe that the vine is actually a honeysuckle.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-75653783893518256282013-05-25T19:34:40.296-07:002013-05-25T19:34:40.296-07:00You had me with the monarda in your first photo (o...You had me with the monarda in your first photo (one of my most favourite summer flowers!)

You could fit the whole of my garden in one corner and hardly notice it!<br /><br />It is a lovely garden though and I could kill for a pond and a waterfall like that!<br />When I see people presenting gardens on their blog that are obviously not their own I always wonder if this is a garden they have designed, or if it is a garden they know through neighbours, family or friends, or just one they found on the Internet. Do you know this garden and the owner?
