The Forgotten Garden

Do you have a corner of your garden

that tends to get neglected?

I have a little nook in the corner of our house

that seems to get forgotten about every single year.

It has potential so I said to myself

that this would be the year it would not be neglected.

So I went out and cleaned out all the weeds.

As you can see the one section wasn't left with much greenery.

I dumped in bags of good black earth and compost.

And gave this little garden a name.

Once something has a name it suddenly isn't forgotten anymore :)

Once I started talking about what I wanted to do with this little space

everyone got in on helping create it.

The little elf I found at an estate sale.

This mushroom I made way back when

when I was still in Junior High School.

My mom had kept it all these years

and when she heard about the garden

she thought that is where it belonged.

The cute little frog is a sprinkler

that my son gave to me many years ago for Mother's Day.

This little house I found at a thrift store.

I love the little butterflies dangling from the roof.

And this little fairy my daughter donated from her room.

The Tiger Lilies are just beginning to bloom

adding some vibrant color to this little corner.

I also added some African Daisies

hoping they will add some more color

as the summer progresses.

And this pretty pink Baby's Breath.

Even though my little garden is called the Forgotten Garden

it is no longer forgotten.
