Fantastic texture in that picture with the red euphorbia(?), japanese bloodgrass, hosta, etc. What I love about your garden is that there's no bare soil in sight, you really take advantage of every available square inch for plants.
I love the spooky house. It is quite festive, but also has beautiful lines.

You only make me miss summer more with your great photos and lush garden. It will be a long winter. Loveyour hollyhock on your last post. Just beautiful!!! They are such great plants. What a nice surprise so late in the year!

Wowza as always. Dear Grace, what would you do without the color pink? :) Sedums are looking great along with everything else - and I love your drive-by shot of the gorgous foliage (is that a burning bush? it's so big, though, so maybe not). When I see houses like that, I usually thing "creepy" first but then wonder if the inhabitants might be elderly/poor/unable to care for their place. Makes me sad. I'm sure someone will live there eventually who will fancy it up - as with a skeleton, it looks like it has "good bones" (ha, belated Halloween joke).

Hi your garden is just so beautiful Sue

Grace, I have selected you to receive the Honest Scrap Award on my blog. ;) Would love to have you participate, but should you chose not too, that is also okay.

Grace, with all the oranges, yellows and browns, it's a real tonic to look at all your pinks and greens. Wish I were there to peek over the garden fence and visit - there's nothing like a garden of such variety and beauty where something new is happening every minute.

Great photos as always Grace! I love the drive-by ...

2009-11-02T12:26:51.308-08:00

Great photos as always Grace! I love the drive-by plant! Great color. And the house too, scary! Did you do another drive by on Halloween to see what they were up to?

2009-11-01T19:13:16.989-08:00

Hi Grace, I love your gardens. I cannot believe the amount of work (and love) that's gone into all you have there. From the paths to the plantings! Now, that last house... All it needs is a lot of TLC! A little rebuilding, scraping and painting and lots of gardening... It'd be a doozy, don't you think? :-)

I just got back from a landscape photography class today and I'll tell ya, I see your garden in a new light. I did always think it was gorgeous, but there are just soooooo many interesting things to photograph in your garden. Thanks for sharing!

I enjoyed strolling through your garden, it's lovely! You're a gardener after my own heart, I love pink (and purple) in the garden.

You have so much of interest in your garden -- the different textures are as interesting as the different colors and shades.

There are some houses like that last one near here...

2009-10-30T20:39:45.505-07:00

There are some houses like that last one near here, in town. There are no gardens like the one you showed around here. Beautiful.

Grace - a drive-by shooting has a different connotation over here :) Like Teza I am intrigued by the purple patch in photo 5.

I am always amazed at all of the textures in your garden. So many plants. I love the pink achillea.I like to tease you about the pink but I really love it all ;-)
Have a great weekend.

Lovely meandering through your garden this morning.
I once tried to introduce a column in a newsletter I wrote for a nursery called "drive by shootings". Like you, I thought it was kind of a fun play on words. Only time I ever got hate mail, and I didn't think gardeners, of all people, went in for that sort of thing...go figure.

2009-10-30T09:37:31.832-07:00

I am assuming this is your garden. This is MY KIND OF GARDEN! Love it!

I like that creepy house. I can see all kinds of possibilities there. But it is kind of creepy now.

I have bookmarked this page so I can look at your garden whenever I want.

Grace, we are going to have to resort to posting pictures from this past spring/summer now our gardens are looking so shabby. Lovely selection of photos you have there. The house sure does have a Halloween feel.

2009-10-30T07:56:49.605-07:00

Thanks for sharing more. I love how you have so much variety of foliage going on and then so many pretty flowers, lots of pink, mixed in. I really like how your path meets the gravel and the containers along the edges. So pretty. What flower is the purple and white one? It looks like a Clematis that might be growing with another dark pink Clematis.

I just had to come back and stroll through your gardens again. I see something different everytime!

Ummm, yes. That house in interesting as in Bates Motel kind of interesting. Funny how they tend to take on a spooky feel depending on the season. Your garden looked beautiful this year!

Morning Grace, your garden is so lush and full. I would love to take a stroll through that great flagstone pathway and look at each and every plant.
cool house at the end...certainly one worthy of a scary movie!

Grace:
Love that last shot.... there are some houses that inspire the strangest emotions... do the residents remotely resemble the Addams'? LOL!!
Photo five: Methinks E. myrsenities somewhat to the left, but the burgundy, bruised foliage, is that another species or C. recta, or am I totally blind this morning....?!?
