The patio at our yellow house is a place of contentment for us.
We often eat here or have coffee in the morning.
The patio set is vintage and becoming chippy. It seems to have been pink once upon a time.
This is the flower garden I am adding plants to all the time. Must stop soon.
Here you can see the deck and rain drops on my lens. Oops.
A partial shade garden.
The deck, with it's picnic table which is really a potting table of sorts.
We never eat at that table because it is in full sun.
The chaise is nice very early in the morning for reading and bird watching.
A sedum in a strawberry pot. Sedums are easy and fun to grow in our hot summers and can be left out in our mild winters.
I hope you enjoyed our patio and deck because we use them as outdoor rooms that extend the inside of our house.
I am joining Kim at Savvy Southern Style for her Summer Porch and Deck Party.

Olive,
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful place to retreat! The grounds and gardens are beautiful. I say, keep on with adding flowers! They look terrific!
Oh, wow! Your patio and deck look so pretty and inviting. I could hang out there and play with Clovis while you make me dinner!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty back yard! I love the addition of all the plants and flowers to the bed- is there ever too much? Asks the novice gardener! LOL I'm hoping to give the back yard beds a cottagey feel. At least that's the current plan.... we'll have to see how the hardscape plans turn out! :-) Sue
ReplyDeleteBeautiful spot, Olive! I love the view you have from the patio, it's so lush! And all of your flowers and plants are so pretty. You can never have too many. Well I guess you could when it comes to taking care of all of them!! lol! It would be great to sit out here and have coffee or tea. Love it!

for outdoor meals.
Too hot on the deck!

Hi Olive,
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you. Thanks for stopping by our porch. I notice that you are from Georgia. I'm from SC. Your yard looks marvelous. I hope it's surviving all this heat. We finally got some good rain last night. Hope you did, too.
Your patio looks so relaxing! I love the plants you've chosen to include in your garden!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place to have coffee in the morning! You have a lovely patio and garden. I love the chippy furniture!
ReplyDeleteGoodness Olive, what a wonderful backyard!
ReplyDeleteSorry, I don't believe you will ever stop add just one more plant. :)
Wow.. Awesome garden...

This is probably the greenest deck I’ve ever seen – a perfect spot to build a deck. I could see why you and your family hang out here often. Isn’t this just a lovely place to have a nightcap? Sol @ DiamondCompanies.net
