Inside Out

Here are some pix of the garden from the inside of our house.
Taking a different perspective is helpful
in so many aspects of life.




Outside the master bedroom in the foreground
we can see the potato patch (with brick surround),
zinnias, pineapple, African Iris, and the butterfly vine.



From the living room, the basil is popping out of the
almost empty veggie garden box.
The saltbush is filling in the upper right-hand corner.



The front curves can be seen from the bathroom window.
I like having something appealing to look at
during my morning routine.



The onion patch is flanked by two rain barrels,
pineapple, salvia and African Iris.
This is also where our clothseline gets used.



From the office, our blue garden in transition shows
sweet potato vine, plumbego, ageratum, African Iris, cosmos
a tall juniper next to the garage, and a low evergreen border.



Lil' Guy has a nice vista of the rattlebox in the background.

Also contained in this bed are zinnias, sweet potato vine,
salvia, lilies, a crape myrtle tree and society garlic.
He happens to have a great view of the top of the other
rain barrel, which is usually a great resting spot for
lizards, tree frogs, butterflies and dragonflies.

Take a look at your garden from a different vantage point!
Have a wonderful gardening day!

  2. Love the views from indoors. Isn't it nice to look out your window and have something pretty to look at? :)

  3. So smart to think about how things in the garden will look from the inside out instead of just the outside! I'll have to keep that in mind for when we eventually get around to doing gardening other than vegetable gardening here :) Looks great!

  4. Looking at something from a different view can add new perspective for sure. You have nice garden views from inside your home.

  6. Your garden looks so nice and green. We lose a little more green here everyday, and in a few more weeks will all be brown :( I do envy your long season

  7. That was fun! I am thinking my favorite view is from Little Guy's window.

    I don't know if my windows are clean enough to do a post like that. I'll have to check.
