I have genuine urn envy. The classical architecture and the wonderful landscaping are simply stupendous. via

Wonderful Landscape Design

I love this simple bluestone path with patches of grass between each stone. Click to see more delightful photos from this Doyle Herman Design Associates project in Southport Connecticut.

Daffodil Lawn

Are you dreaming of daffodils? Mine are still buried under over a foot of snow. Do you love this 1775 Welsh cottage as much as I do? Have a great weekend. More photos here.

Tall Hedges Secret Garden

Tall clipped hedges with low hedges trimmed to resemble benches. Love the two shades of green and the topiaries in pots beside the stairs. Nice gravel path too. via

Delightful Article on Bunny Williams

The main residence on the grounds was built in 1840 and is the subject of Williams’s best-selling "An Affair with a House".

Left to right: A loggia off the carriage house; baskets and birdhouses in the potting shed.

Detail of one of her gardens.
One of the world’s most respected interior designers has spent her career teaching folks that style doesn’t trump comfort—and that there should always be room for the dogs.

Lattice Pie Crust and Lattice Hedges


I'm impressed with both of these lattice masterpieces. I could easily master the pie but never these wonderful topiary boxwood. Aren't they amazing? Both images from Pinterest. xo

A Modern Farmhouse with House Tour


I love all of the exterior photos of the farmhouse pictured above. There is a very comprehensive house tour of the interior too HERE. The idea of a tour is to embrace the things you love and ignore the things you don't. If you get one good idea, that's great! Have a wonderful weekend. xo

Oak leaf hydrangea at the home of my friend. She has so many of these lovely native shrubs and they are all simply covered with cone-shaped flower heads. Do want!

Nicely Landscaped Path and Entrance

I love this broken stone pathway with grass growing in between. I want to follow it and go in the French doors but there's a strawberry planter in the way. via

Walls of Green

I have reached the point in my gardening life where I can admire this hedge wall but not want it. I know my limitations.

Touched By Snow

I'm voting for this much snow. Just enough to decorate the landscape and then stop. This isn't going to happen though. Be safe and stay inside if you can. Be careful shoveling. Webster has a new bag of food and 3 boxes of biscuits so he's all set. I have nutritious food to keep me satisfied and on track with my food diary. The snow shovels are all lined up so I guess I'm prepared but a little nervous too. Isn't this a fabulous photo? found here
