The Garden at its Peak!

It's been ages since I posted anything, so here are a bunch of pictures to make up for the wait. The garden is looking absolutely beautiful this year and the plants have really grown and spread out. These pictures are all from the last two weeks, so you'll see the peak of most of the flowers.

Just click any of the pictures to see them full-size.

We have planted a whole row of lilacs and peonies in the front of the house (you can see it in the center picture above) to form a bit of a breaker between us and the road. The last picture up there is a brand-new peony named "Shirley Temple". Can you guess why we bought that one?!

I'd write more, but I'm almost finished with another little gnome, so I'm off to work on him. We've had a busy few weeks lately, but this weekend should be a bit slower. More later.
