This was not the post I planned on but the computer ate my photos. I imported the photos and poof they disappeared. I hate tech problems! Another photo session tomorrow, hopefully there will be more sunlight than there was today. Low lighting today because yes, we had more snow.
So when all else fails, browse last summer's garden photos! I found a grouping that I liked and had not posted before. It always helps to review last year's photos when planning for the upcoming spring garden.
The pinks are mixed with snapdragons, begonias, and zinnias. I also have lamium, the common name is spotted deadnettle, which comes in white, purple and pink of course! It is a wonderful flowering ground cover.
On paper, tomorrow is the first day of spring, in reality it still seems very far away. But these pictures remind me that summer will be here soon, I can hardly wait!

These are the flower beds that line my driveway at the cottage. Pink petunias along the edge of the bed with snow crop daisies. Different varieties of roses next to the house.
There really is a walkway to get to the side door, it is lined with pots of geraniums, lobelia, alyssum and hens and chicks.

The roses are up against the side of the house, they are happy there facing south.
This is a partial look at another flower bed on the other side of the driveway. The flowers are dianthus, commonly called pinks. I love these because they are easy to grow and reappear year after year.
