Art in Bloom Garden Tour House No. Three

 Just across the street from the former (No. Two) house was the No. Three home. Up a steep hill we climbed to the back garden, and it was worth it!


Wonderful stone work throughout


From the top of the drive







Great to have labels on a lot of plants, but not all! We kept commenting how there were no weeds! (I imagine a landscaping crew on their knees plucking weeds out)

My friend Helen talked with the artist...




Bill said he was taking photos to hopefully publish in a newspaper (unnamed)

The photographer, Bill, said he'd take our photo on my camera...so I said sure...but we didn't even know the lady in the hat...no problem. He started taking them before we posed, and I think that was best.

On to the next area, in an older part of Black Mountain. Sharing with Living in Black Mountain.

And check out the Gallery Exhibit of the Floral art for this fund raiser at my blog about art:

  3. Certainly making the most of a small space. The stone wall and other backdrops show the flowers off nicely.

    1. They do make a good contrast, the heavy solid stones and the delicate changing flowers.

  9. Thanks for sharing your garden tour. I can't imagine a garden with no weeds. I can't seem to keep up with pulling weeds in this heat we are having in western Kentucky.
