The whimsical frog spitting into the fountain is something I wish I had in my garden and makes me smile. How pretty and different is the collage of painted old garden tools mounted on the brick wall. That donkey! Please tell us the story behind that donkey.<br />The Eure Garden is a feast for the eyes. Such beautiful and colorful plantings. The gardener here has an eye for filling containers with interesting combinations that makes one stop and inspect just what plants are in the pots. Your picture of the steps and sides of the foundation covered in the creeping fig is magazine worthy. I could spend hours in this garden just admiring all the beauty.<br />Thanks for sharing what must have been a great day with that van full of garden geeks!

There are a couple really nice ideas that you've shared here - would you mind if a "captured" the photos to put on Pinterest to remind myself about them later? (I'm thinking about the one with the white painted garden art on the wall, from the first garden, and the creeping fig on the steps from the second garden.)Gaia Gardener:https://www.blogger.com/profile/00692281131036600613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765612855992884633.post-13416443298242990242013-07-03T09:38:25.778-04:002013-07-03T09:38:25.778-04:00Lots to take in here from both gardens.

I love the whimsical artistic touches in the first garden-especially the dancing frog sculpture next to the fountain and the house number collage of old garden tools and trinkets. In the second garden, it's the explosion of color in the bee garden and that fabulous deck space with a view of the water.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13911109672807196057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765612855992884633.post-27183320293215330782013-07-02T23:33:50.940-04:002013-07-02T23:33:50.940-04:00I really love the first garden.
