A Gift Of The Heart In Our Garden


Quite a number of plants in our garden arrived here as gifts; few of these have the impact of the two long hedges of Weigela Red Prince that run uphill on either side of long perennial borders, leading to the large angel under a red cedar tree.
The shrubs were a gift from my father-in-law, now gone from us, who was a man of great grace and kindness. I think he would like how they look in May...

He has left you a gift that lives on..
What a treasure that is!
 
Mike... thanks for your comment!

dl... you know, it's nice to have the growing hedge to remind me of him, but it would be nicer to have him still around to talk to. He was pretty neat guy.

What a wonderful tribute. Both in word and in the fact that there's a living, breathing reminder as you stroll through the "lane." Beautiful. :-)
 
Hi Don!

Just in my taste.
