Mini Garden tour

Well been busy..... no not learning to drive... not yet... I been visiting my great gardening friends Violeta and Liga. Its great to see such a brilliant gardens, filled with the plants i never knew before. with the colours and magic corners. 

First I have visited Violetas Garden.. well not just visit we had a great time sitting down and dreaming about bigger gardens, greater disigns and discussing how much we moved on from the girls who only knew how to grow the sunflowers..hah ha.. Violetas garden is an example how you can achieve the beautiful garden in the small space if you plan and play around with the colours. The plants are so healthy that you can put them in the plant enciclopedia. thank you for the lovely time Violeta, generousity and can not wait to see you in my place... 

Second stop its Ligas...well if you go to Ligas you need to prepare your latin dictionary and just keep up with all the rare and unusual plants... Orchids in sizes from 0 to 10//.. beautiful colection Liga.. Geraniums and palergoniums in different colours, scents and foliage...peonies, day lilies and roses just blooming... oh i really need to inject more colour in my garden after seeing yours... and yes Liga you can do so many jumpers with the wool you have got..  thanks for the cuttings and geraniums they are so beautifull. hope to see you soon.

happy gardening to you all.

Gosh, Violeta certainly has all her plants in tip top condition. I love the photo you took of her - really natural. I wonder if Violeta can tell me the name of the Clematis in photo number 3 because I have it but lost the label.


Lìga Lìga 25 June 2012 22:34:44

I would be happy if she would ,,but new one :))

Wow, Jurga, you have a great eye for taking photos! My garden looks better in your photos... ha ha ha  

I must agree, Liga is brilliant with her selection of plants! Every time I visit her i see somthing ive  never seen before!

Rachel, the clematis name is CLEMATIS VILLE DE LYON. :-)


Rachel Rachel 26 June 2012 15:52:08

I so agree about Liga's garden. I love Liga's taste in plants and choices in combination and she is always growing something new and exotic.

Thanks for the Clematis name, Violeta. It has never flowered for me before but now I see I made a note that I had a label for 'Ville de Lyon' but didn't know where I planted it. Mystery solved.
