Gardens, Doors, Fences, & Gates

Just returning home from the North Carolina coastal area where I went to visit my sister. She had surgery recently and I went to help out for awhile. Her gardens had been calling out for attention. I spent 3 full days just weeding and trimming shrubs. Somehow weeding can be so satisfying; however, my back and knees do not necessarily agree. But I do love to see a clean and tidy garden. As I worked my mind raced back and forth about my new property in South Carolina. Most of my property is pasture and my cottage will require a different style of gardening that my last two homes. One was French and one was Georgian and both had formal gardens. On my buying trips to England and France I always take time to look at gardens, front door entrances, gates, and fences. I thought I would share some pictures that I have taken. Hopefully others may find some inspiring ideas to use. After all, it is time to start thinking about our fall gardens and designs.
