This is all about my garden and how I make it grow.

This is what I have done in my garden and my yard to try to make it grow and be as beautiful as it can be.

Shasta Daisy



Well the plant I planted last year and had forgotten what it was, turns out it is a Shasta Daisy.   The Shasta daisy is a perennial so it will come back year after year.  What makes it so good is all of the bulbs that I have planted in this part of the yard are all white.  Lilies, daffodils and irises, the one next to it is every other color.

Gardenia's in bloom



This is one of my Gardenia bushes in full bloom.  My husband put just a handful of fertilizer on the bushes (10-10-10)  and they all started blooming.  They are planted all across the front of the house and they make the house smell so sweet this time of year.  My little girl asked me where the perfume she smelled was coming from, I told her it wasn't perfume it was the flowers.  She smelled the flowers and she realized it wasn't perfume but the flowers.
