Oasis, yes, that is a good name for that photo, I love it too. Blackcat, the photos of your garden are wonderful..thanks for sharing them. It is later in the season now...I am wondering how that same garden looks now...any more pictures? It looks like it is someplace you can enjoy it as you pass it everyday too! : )
If you click the link again, you'll see I just started a new album with different views of that bed. Up til now it's really been a holding bed for whatever perennials I buy or start from seed. I also plug in some annuals. Since we've been been agonizing over the renovation of our old house for almost 4 years now, I just needed something to brighten my day every time I pulled into the driveway. Now that we're finally living in our house (but FAR from done!) I can start really thinking about where I want things to go on a permanent basis. I have a lot of work ahead!
Very nice! Isn't it amazing how it can start out looking so barren in the spring, then only a short time later be filled so full of lush color? I think it is a very cheerful spot to see as you come and go. It would make me smile ( it did, and that is just with a photo) Thanks for adding new photos...JoAnn
