In the woods


Hydrangeas,Hosta  and  moss on the wood

Sun flower,Hosta,Japanese iris leaves and a piece of wood
Taken outside. Hydrangeas was given when I visited Betsy's garden
We had garden tour in our community last weekend.  People try to use every square inch of ground in a small space and a small yard, so cozy and pretty. But you can not miss the powerful display of Hydrangeas.
