Daughters's Garden

My daughter has a beautiful garden. I am so proud of her in a myriad of ways.
I think we southerner's call them pass along plants. The fluffy beautiful fern pictured is yarrow and was given to me by a special friend from her grandmother. I passed some along to my daughter. She found the perfect spot for it at her home.

Succulents catch your eye and draw you in.




Sadly, recently their area received a deluge of rain that washed out many of her plants after all her hard work.


The artist's eye at work with these plant combinations.

She shares my love of hydrangeas.
Amy has many artistic talents.
Her home is very lovely and delights the eye and the soul. We enjoy visiting our family and receive such warm hospitality each and every time.

    Your daughter has a very lovely garden. It makes you want to sit down and have a glass of tea.

    Bonnie, I can see why you are so proud of her. Her garden is beautiful..I have been thinking a lot about legacy lately and what we leave our children...it surely is obvious that you have already passed on a lot to your daughter..my daughter doesn't do any gardening at all..but my son has taken it up lately...hopefully some of my grandchildren will like it..
    Love,Mona

    Bonnie, it's evident to me that your daughter inherited your talent and love for gardening. Her garden is beautiful; I'm so sorry the torrential rains messed up her plants and flowers. That is discouraging when you've put so much work into something.

    The yarrow plant is lovely, as are the hydrangeas. She also has a beautiful home; I can see why it would be a pleasure for you to visit. :) Take care and have a great week.

    Passalong plants are the best kind Bonnie! I have some from my MIL's garden and my Aunt's. Your daughter's garden is beautiful. We've had an endless deluge of rain too...I'm glad I'm not a farmer!

    I can see why you love her gardens in her yard. They are very pretty! I love the stone border around her yard and the birdbath near the hydrangeas. She has done a great job mixing garden statuary with the plants.

    Isn't it fun to share our daughter's talents and style which are a reflection of their uniqueness. Linsey recently received what would be a pass along plant and she is thrilled to know that it originated with her great great grandmother.

    Your daughter's garden is lovely - I wonder where she gets her talented "eye" - lol!!! Your "pass along" plants comment reminded me that I was told years ago never to actually say, "Thank you", for those or the plants would not grow. We southerners have some strange ideas - hahahaha!

    I'm afraid the rain has confused a lot of things in my garden, my hydrangeas are just now starting to bloom...yours [or your daughter's?] are gorgeous as is the yarrow. Lovely
