Sunday morning in my secret garden

September 14, 2008 by Susie Collins 

I spent some of my Sunday morning visiting the front entrance pond, tea and camera at hand. The fish get so excited anticipating food, voracious little buggers. The mosaic plant is outrageously beautiful since I got control of the summer algae bloom. And the variegated leaves of the day water lilies are spectacular. Everything is blooming today. Wow.

From top to bottom: View down the front stoop to the pond and gardens (bird bath to the right), variegated water lily leaves and orange comets, lavendar water hyacinth bloom and yellow mosaic plant blooms, close up of mosaic plant (is that beautiful or what?!), side view of whole pond.

    You’re welcome, thank you for visiting! I’ve been focusing mostly on sharing the ponds, but am thinking about sharing other things: the fruit trees, gardens and more on the chickens. Right now we’re building a fenced in veggie garden to keep the chickens out. My Secret Garden has a lot going on! It really is my sanctuary. When the world became hostile to my very breath, I created my own safe world.
