They had a sunroom built onto the side of their house years ago. The landscaper did a nice job around the structure and I thought it would be nice to share it here.
Here's a nice photo of the sunroom addition. As the name suggests, it's a warm and light-filled space that they enjoy almost all year long.
I like the gravel that creates a maintenance-free path to walk around to the backyard.
The stones that define the flower beds near the house are in a curved shape, making it visually interesting.
And how can roses ever be a bad choice?? Hers are in full bloom already - mine aren't:(
A nice mixture of perennials and annuals keep the color going all season.
I hope this inspires someone to make a beautiful garden area out of a small space. It's refreshing to sit in that sunroom and enjoy the beautiful foliage, the birds, and the sunlight!
That certainly looks like a cute garden! When visiting family, you can pick up some gardening or even home improvement ideas you can do at your own home. What are some of the things you'd like to emulate from your sister's garden? As for your farm, this is quite a big and different undertaking. If there's one thing you want, is that you don't run out of space! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for your comment, Matt. I have quite a bit of landscaping beds already done around my house. I like to use natural materials, so I have many curved stone wall borders around the yard. And since my mother's name was Rose, I can't have enough rose bushes!
DeleteBeautiful landscape! How about a picture of the German Shepherd? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jacquie! Sorry, the only photo I got was blurry. But she is a beauty, trust me!
