Copper~n~Things: A Walk In A Spring Garden

Welcome

Welcome to our old farmhouse. Over the past year I have learned so much history of this house and the people who lived here. Ninety six years of love, loss, hopes and dreams. Preservation continues and there is always a repair to be done. We are trying to be purest in our preservation as much as we possibly can. I hope you follow along and each week I will try to give you a little history of the house as well as the first owners of the house. I've been lucky enough to find a journal from a Granddaughter who talks about the house as well as her Grandparents. So come follow along and learn about this old house as well as the occupants, old and new.

A Walk In A Spring Garden

I'm joining in on all the fun today

for Fertilizer Friday at

"Tootsie Time" .

So be sure to stop by and see all the beautiful

gardens and plants waiting for you there.

A view of my willow tree and hosta.

Up close and personal.

There were several hosta plants here when I

moved in, over the last couple of years as the plants

have gotten larger, I have started to divide them.

This honeysuckle is one of my favorites.

Thanks for stopping by.

Bye For Now,

Erin said...: I started out with five hostas and now they're all over my yard. I love them! They're best plant. I have a honeysuckle that was so sick when we moved in a few years ago that we didn't realize what it is. This year will be it's year, though...TLC should win out!; May 7, 2010 at 8:58 PM

Bonnie@Creative Decorating said...: This looks great! Your hostas are HUGE! I thinned my out a few years ago and it is taking forever for them to get bigger! We have what I call "wild" honeysuckle growing on the edge of the woods on the hillside. It smells WONDERFUL! Thanks so much for stopping by my little blog!! I am a new follower of yours!!; May 9, 2010 at 8:20 AM
