    Super. I get up on the roof now and then and look-it gives one a new perspective! Good looking yard.

    Oh my, that is truly lovely, and so tidy! How you keep up with it all is amazing.
    you obviously have an eye for design and great use of space. Your neighbors must hang over the fence just to get a look!

    I can clearly see the amount of work you must put into your garden Donna. What a beautiful layout you have and, as others have said, it's so tidy that it puts my outdoor space to shame. :oops: You're also a lot braver than me as I'd never contemplate standing on the roof to take photographs. :smt018

    Donna, Very very nice and neat. I do like the different angle the picture was taken. Guess I have to get my hubby on a ladder to do that. NO NO, I don't think he would like that just to take pictures of the gardens. :rolleyes:

    Great idea to get some photos from the roof. Such a different perspective. Everything looks great!
    Hmmmm.... I'm not scared of heights... but I am scared of falling... wonder if I could talk one of my brothers to get on the roof and take some photos for me? :-D

    Great photos of your gardens Donna! Everything looks so tidy and I wish I was there to look at all your plants in person! I think you need to send hubby back up on the roof with the camera again in a few weeks when everything starts filling in. Great yard!

    Good morning all and thanks for all the nice comments

    Stratsmom, The fluffy pink bush is an azalea

    Netty, Already told hubby he will have to take pitures as plants bloom. As of yesterday I have put 481 plants in the ground. That does not include seeds or ones that I dug up and transplanted, baskets or pots. I still have one more area to do.

    Donna, what a lovely garden space. I love the cloches (what's inside?)and the walkways and the half-moon shape. Are the poles for decoration, watering or for growing plants?
