Last week I mentioned I'd share the new garden area that I planted this year. I wanted to add more flowers to the side of the house, reduce the lawn a little more and add an arbor.
One the right side I added Pink Diamond Hydrangeas, delphinium, daisies, coneflowers, petunias, snapdragons and alyssum. On the left side I planted more Endless Summer Hydrangeas, astilbe, violas and lobelia. The arbor will hold a climbing rose and clematis.
I think it is hard to take photos of the expanded view of the garden. You are fighting sunlight or shade, making it difficult to capture the true beauty. The area is really prettier than I have been able to capture. Anyway, I look forward to next year and having the new garden area fill in a little more.
A big thanks to Kathryn at Make It Pretty Monday for featuring our garden from last week!
This is the arbor in the early spring before the garden was planted around it.

This is the new addition and as you can see it is quite a difference.
This is the view coming from the front of the house.

If you go to the backyard and round the corner you get a different view, both pretty I think.
The larger hydrangeas were planted on a previous garden improvement project.

I like rabbits and have them in several spots in the garden. This guy looks a little grumpy, how could he be grumpy among all theses flowers?
This is the climbing rose called Angel Face. I've managed to get a few blooms, my nemesis the deer have been eating them. I love the soft pink color, they are fragrant and smell wonderful.
I like the combination of hydrangeas and astilbe.
