Many of you who have known me for a while, have discovered my other passion--cottage gardening. My cottage garden has suffered this year, because (as I joke now--but it wasn't funny when it happened) Dr. Death paid a visit in early spring. He hates me to tell the story, but my other half (DH Jim) thought he would help out and spray weed preventer in my cottage garden. Nothing else to say other than it has taken all season to get things back to normal, and he stays at least 6 feet from the edge of my gardens.
But now, on the eve of the rainy season, the cottage garden is glorious and even this young first year clematis perked a few blooms. When I took these pics, it had just finished a rain shower, so everything was so beautiful and colorful!

Oh Debbi, what a delightful garden!!! And as a message to Dr. D. -- "step AWAY from the garden.." lol!! :) Glad all was not lost!!
Beautiful Garden, Debbi! I love gardening too, but this year has not been good for my family, so mine suffered a bit too. But, there's always next year!

your garden is beautiful! each year I get more involved in mine and i have big plans for next spring. i really like fountains,,cant get enough of them--i'm up to 6 now!
Your garden is lucious! I wish I could get the "hang" of it. I love the idea but I just can't seem to get things going to grow. Oh, and I've met that Dr. D before myself. Me no likey.
Your garden is absolutely beautiful Debbi, and I can see how you really care for it. Why do men like to spray things or throw down fertilizer but do non of the tending? Well mine is like that anyway LOL. So happy to see you got it back to the way it should be :)
