Go to WHISTLESTOP CAFE for more PHOTO HUNT SATURDAY photo partipants!Four beautiful dahlias from last summer. These were in a storybook-type garden where my niece wanted some of her senior pictures taken. A gorgeous, still pond was in the yard with a beautiful curved footbridge that led to a small island on which was a welcoming weeping willow tree, a bench and some flowers. I could imagine sitting out there with a book as a gentle breeze blew. Back in the yard were many flower borders and more than a couple flower gardens and a gorgeous vegetable garden as well. The yard was like a little paradise and the homeowners certainly had a gift for landscaping their gem of a yard. Pretty nice to look at in the throes of late winter in Michigan!

Oh, I love dahlias, and yours are GORGEOUS! Thanks for stopping by and your sweet comments. Now I'm off to the farmhouse...
Glad you could stop by and...sit a spell on my blog! I just scrolled down yours past the bowls and saw my old Pastor...Mike Huckabee! I just love that fella! So, no, I am not from Kentucky...I'm from Arkansas. We took a trip to KY cause it's the closest "south" to Michigan! (and that's the truth) Well, my friends from college were doing a concert in Ohio, almost in Kentucky, so we made a trip of it.
Ever heard of Point of Grace...that's the concert we went to see.
However, I did fall in love with the beautiful country side of Kentucky! The people were so kind too.
I plan on taking my son to the park today...if it really gets in the upper 40's and stays sunny!
Bless...Shell
good things come in fours!
LOVE your four! Spring cannot arrive soon enough for me...beautiful dahlias.

Looking at the dahlia pic, my brain is saying "no way", then I read "from last year". :-)
I love dahlias and was going to be envious - doesn't happen much - but to have year round dahlias, yep envy would set in. Beautiful pink dahlias - lovely pic. Thanks for sharing.
It's always nice to look at pics of last summer's flowers to remind us that soon the garden will waken and those blooms will be with us again.
