| We've been dabbling in our potager garden for two seasons now and are really enjoying the process. Lots of trial and error and lots of surprises. We are learning as we go, but thought we'd share some photos with you. |

| Lulabelle, welcome to GardenWeb! Your potager is stunning! What part of the country do you live in? Dh & I redid my kitchen garden this year and lined the beds with bricks like yours, but my paths are filled with pine straw. I've bookmarked your blog for future visits. |

| Are you sure you don't publish a magazine? Positively gorgeous. Keep posting! |

| Natal - thanks for the warm welcome! I am new to the garden side, but used to frequent the Home Decorating Forum a few years ago when we were building our home (under the name Fab40). We are in the Mid-Atlantic region of the US. How is your "new" kitchen garden doing this year? Donnabaskets - so sweet of you to say but no magazine publishing here. We are just homebodies who love to work on home and garden projects :) |

| I knew there was something familiar about some of those glimpses from your house. The bath with the red ceiling, the clock in your kitchen, the dormer window seats, but without a full shot I just wasn't sure. I remember how gorgeous your house was and I loved the colors you chose for all the rooms. I'm glad you're back! The new garden did great! Best tomato harvest ever! Today I finished pulling all the plants except one. Next week it'll go and I'll transplant a couple for the fall garden. Looking forward to cooler temps and a chance to plant things that feel the same way, lol. |

| Natal - Tomatoes, yum! We are just beginning to harvest ours. Like you, I'm looking forward to cooler temps. I think, for the first time, we'll try some lettuce in the fall. defrost49 - Thank you. |

| I love your garden! I can even feel the ambiance in your place. |

| That is sooo pretty. I'm generally anti-flowers (you can't eat them, mostly!) but that's really lovely. I love the brick with little soil rectangles-- that's a cool layout. |

| Jessica, flowers offer nectar for butterflies and hummingbirds, seed for birds ... not to mention their sheer beauty. I can't imagine a garden without flowers. |

| So Special. All that hardscaping is fabulous, it really formalizes the garden. Great photos. |

| I can't imagine wasting garden space on non-tomatoes! But then, I've got a tiny yard. If I had room to spread out, I think flowers would have a fighting chance. Hope all is well in the garden! |
