Leisurely Garden Stroll ~
It’s early July in our
garden. A medley of plantings are
just hitting their prime and I’ve
stopped to smell the lavender.
I’m beginning
to taste the sweet
fruits of my labor. The
French green bush
beans, I dotingly raised
from seed, are nearly ready to
harvest. The champagne grape
vines are twirling their
way up our fig tree, using
it as a natural support.
I love that. I adore our succulents
too…with their sublime shades of
blue & green…
Our fountain, turned herb planter, is
spilling over with incredibly
fragrant curry, rosemary
and thyme.
Our courtyard lavender survived
the recent pounding rain.
Speaking of lavender,
the lovely white
varieties of lavender I
planted weeks ago
are beginning to bloom…
and the scent, as they
sway in the lake breeze, is
wonderful. So that’s it, Just a
leisurely Sunday stroll…
down our garden path.
Thanks for coming along,
Your garden is so tidy and beautiful. And the setting with the water is divine, Monica. Really lovely. Are you all on a bay or lake? I also love the stonework :-)

We are very fortunate to be on the lake…on the open water. Lovely winter storms. Thank you for all of your kind feedback! xxo Monica
What wonderful garden and view Monica. Green grass, flowers, veggies, figs and water! Perfect. Have a great weekend.
I love that first picture!!! Did you get your white lavender at Molbaks? I just planted 17 “standard” ones, but would love to mix in some white! Melaine
Thank you Donna :) Hope you had a wonderful weekend too! Monica
Hi Miss Melaine! Thank you! Yep, Molbaks was the place…not sure they still have the white? The standards
sound lovely! M
