Hot Ideas for Entrances, Privacy & Garden Art
I sure could stand to up my garden gate secret plan . Here ’s a playfulness station best inJean Morgan’sColorado garden where a pineapple finial represents hospitality and Bugs cheerfully cue us to shut the logic gate behind us . Clever entrances , screening , and garden nontextual matter were a gateway to ideas on June’sGarden Bloggers Flingin Colorado . InDan Johnson and Tony Miles’garden , the hefty metal ingress bower supports a rose , its design resound the wooden porch structure for hanging container . To artistically invite backyard entrance , an elaborately carved , colorful frame ( starting biography as something else ? ) anchor a rustic logic gate . They carry their luxuriously saturated color palette and architectural style to a patio where the partial cover ’s cutout reverberate the ripples of nearby watercourse and pond . And what a balance number to top that post!Carol and Randy Shinnconnected front and back with a stylish rose bower and decorate logic gate . The steering wheel of creativity turn inJean Morgan’sgarden with a nod to the past — whether of historic role or simply out - of - use . Tatiana Maxwellparks her wheels in a clever bike interface . Park and pluck fresh food from her teetotal stack raise vegetable bed . Hog panel protect against critters cruising by . The port ’s sewer funnels rainwater into the whiskey cask plant . Since I ’ve got chain link fencing material , I ’m always looking for screening ideas for plant gaps . I ’m not sure I could manoeuvre this rendering inLinda Boley’sgarden , but I ’d like to try . Trellises and anthesis plants be given to this section . I adore her fence treatment on another side . Often in August , I ’ve considered simply paint plants onto fencing material and to heck with watering!Perhaps she grows climber on the arbor in the vegetable garden , but whether or not , it adds vertical sport . On the opposite fence , she prefer bamboo screening , something I ’ve used , too . Another screening estimation high on my list : Janice Devore’sbamboo - laced elusive shields beyond her pond . Sled into fun upcycled garden graphics inJean Morgan’sgarden . Well , okay , I take over these are sleigh : I ’ve actually never control one . I ’ve rarely seen snow , either , and certainly not enough to sled on . Of of course , I could n’t withstand this petite scenario ! No fears that bunny will champ her Orange River geum . This curving sculpture — its provenance as fence post , perhaps — beckons toDan Johnson and Tony Miles’garden . This one cue me of a plow . Whimsically they know an American aloe ’s urge to snag you . Golden - painted flack water faucet stand for public supply system of rules water , soRetha and Keith Funkgave their front yard “ sculpture ” disingenuous aid with California poppies and golden princes ’ plume . I bet some of those irises complement , too . Linda Boleybalances colors and Lucy Stone . I ’d love to do this , too , if 1 ) I had the patience ; and 2 ) if I did n’t have frisky raccoons that would toss it just for fun . Here ’s an intricate carving on Paula and Scott Deemer ’s front porch that looks sort of like fossilized coral , but I have no clue!Another prowess I ’d like to achieve : an al fresco dining tabular array presentation like this inKirsten and Scott Hamling’sgarden . Readied for a Father ’s Day gather later that day , they clothe each place setting with a take - home herb . On CTG this week , meetJennie and Matt Horvath , who revived a long - hold up household glasshouse asWimberley Gardensspecializing in natives and adapted plant life in cervid and drought country . On tour , seasonal implosion therapy and a steep ravine only sound for ziplining promptedNatalie and Bob Bennett’splant - tiered waterfall , pool , and front yard sedge and wildflower meadow . Watch now !
Thanks for stopping by ! See you next week , Linda
