Hi all. Well, I worked real hard yesterday and today to get the first part of my virtual tours done. This is the layout tour, to acquaint everyone with the different areas in our garden. We've (okay, mainly my mom) worked very hard to have a special, relaxing garden in the Chicago suburbs. Please have a look and let me know what you think! Thanks!
Kristy, I loved taking the tour of your garden. Tell your mom her "circle" looks great! It's all growing so well. Love the frogs, too. I have one of those metal farmer frogs. It's fun and whimsical. I had to put a heavy stone at its feet to keep it from falling over all the time. Thanks for posting the tour.
Thanks for the compliments! Yeah, I'm envious of Mom's circle. It gets full sun almost all day. I might have to try and talk my way into getting a segment of it, hehe. Farmer Frog is awesome, lol, we all love him. When my mom bought it, we went to Victoria's Secret afterwards. She was walking around the store with it (and he's 2.5 or 3 feet tall and Mom's only 5 feet tall, lol!) and someone finally offered to store it behind the counter for her, lol. She was afraid someone would steal him, heh. When my uncle saw it, he was like, "You couldn't have picked up two of those, now could ya?" Ha! We have to put a big rock on his feet, too. He had a wasp nest inside his mouth last week. Some animal knocked him over and ate it! Glad we didn't have to try and get rid of it.
