Parts of my yard

[trudy]

I don't have the best camera there is, but it does alright. Some have wanted to see my yard, so here are a few pics.

This is on an arbor that joins the back porch awning to the carport roof. Old Blush and another Will Scarlet roses are in the center, On one end is Carloling Jasmine, the other end is Honeycomb Honeysuckle. The OB has already had its spring flush.


Here one side of the front porch, Climbing Pinkie is on the side trellis, the front trellis is Red Cascade which isn't blooming yet. Lined in the front of the bed although small still are Franziska Kruger, Isabella Sprunt, andI did have Buff Beauty near the skirting but had to move it due to size. Now there is a baby that has come back from a root left behind.


This is part of the other side of the front porch bed that is mostly shade.


Back/side yard. On the trellis is Sombrieul, and a Souivier de la Malmaison is somewhere on the edge. The snowball bush has just finished it spring bloom.







Here is my security system, Lavender Lassie at the bedroom window.


The other back bedroom window is Red 7 Sisters getting ready to bloom, the 95 gal. trough was recycled and made into a herb bed.



This is it for now, gotta run, more to come later. T.

[douglas]

Now thems some nice pics Trudy, what a beautiful yard you have

[biscombe]

What a lovely garden! lots of big trees!! I love all the flowers! Did you make the bird house?

[trudy]

Thanks yawl, no I didn't make the birdhouse. Bought it on sale years ago. When we bought this property 12 yrs ago there wasn't anything in it but some volunteer pines that were so thick we had to thin them out, they were only about waist high then. It was a growed up field of mostly broom sage and briers and hadn't been worked in many years. T

[crazy1]

They sure do, they are great birds to have around.

[chickenfarmer]

Love martins, down here they are your best friends in the mosquito season...

[chickenfarmer]

Hey Trudy.... Yo Trudy.... whats that thing next to the Mock orange on the corner of the house?

[Compost Pharmer]

Sure got a nice yard there Trudy. I am jealous. Thanks for the pics.

[trudy]

CF are you referring to the bucket on the stand that is turned over? If so it was a gift from SIL that could have been used for a plant stand but I use it instead to wash deer hides in. That shed use to be my craft room and I converted it over to one of my taxidermy rooms, then the shed next to it (not shown) is my taxidermy finishing room. T

[crazy1]

You do taxidermy as well as all the rest of the stuff you do. You are a busy person there T. How about some pics of smiling stuffed heads? or sumthin'.

[trudy]

I'll have to find the pics, not sure if they are on photobucket or not but will check. I don't usually post things like that cause it may offend people. But if you want I'll look for them. I've only been at it for about 3 years. I just do it in all my spare time I have, lol. DH keeps telling me I have to many irons in the fire, one day I'll listen.......maybe. I tell him at least I'm not out running the roads and bar hopping. T

[chickenfarmer]

Yeah Trudy that was it, couldnt tell what it was.....
