Princess Garden

This is my new area for mostly my Japanese Red Maples and other smaller bushes that hopefully will grow to be much larger. In the little waterfall fixture that doesn't work any more I discovered a tiny spring frog in the fixture. Just as I finished the new garden I heard her start to sing. I got a tear then and named it "Princess Garden". It really sets the back yard off and shows up so beautiful as you drive up the driveway.
I can hardly wait for it to develope and will probably spend a lot of time making sure all is OK. I seen a couple other spring frogs in the pump house the other day, so I just may have to catch them and put them in the new garden. And they all lived happily ever after. LOL

Oh-Oh!!

People that know me or have read about me know that several of my creations have came from dreams... Right now someone is saying, "Oh-Oh Sylvia had a dream".. Yes I did!!
BONSAI!!!!!!
I have had three red Japanese Maples for almost two years, protecting, watering, and they are still so very small an vulnerable. Then it came to me. I seen that they wanted to become a beautiful Bonsai tree..
I can hardly contain myself, either that or I have a bad case of spring fever. I have a bit of studying to do, but the design is in my head...
I promise I will put a picture in just as soon as I get it started...
Ahhh!!!! I said spring was just around the corner, and right now I know the people in the Northeast can't see it for all the snow...But trust me, all the signs are there... This morning a beautiful Blue bird was setting on the Eagles head at the end of my flag pole...Oh where Oh where is my camera when I need it... I did get a good picture of my husbands Shamrock plant... It produced eight stalks of flowers for Valentines day...WOW!!! Now how is that for getting flowers and never leaving the house...
