Garden Pictures

Okay, so I thought I'd share a few pictures of my backyard that I love so much;

1st - Holly tree in the Winter (she's the star during the winter time - you can't see her too well during the summer);

2nd - My island garden. The gargoyle's name is "JD" (for Jersey Devil). That's Marty's contribution! :roll:

Let's see yours!

Very nice. I really like the holly tree in the snow. As I live in Florida and have no snow.LOL. Thanks for sharing. Well I think this isnt a bad idea for a topic, but maybe re name the thread garden pictures. That way everyone can share their pictures as well. What do you think?

Here is my little tomatoe garden I had, and a bed in my front yard I love to look at.

I tried to upload more but for some reason it would do some and not others, why I have no clue. Taken with the same camera on the same day. If I can get it to upload I'll post more, I wanted to share my backyard. Oh well.

How lush and colorful O Town!!!

I can't imagine why you would have problems posting some of your pictures, but if you are able to post some from your backyard, I'd love to see them!

Funny thing is they where all taken by the same digatal camera and loaded the same way, but some of them it says file too big???? But I can go to another hosting site and post them as thumbnails and you can just click on them.

Back yard, a plant or turning into a tree we call a pencil plant, and my desert rose plant in full bloom.That pencil plant is a succualnt and is generally not that huge, that thing is getting out of control. We have a lot of smaller ones through out the yard this is the mama. You can make babys just by snapping off a piece and placing it in dirt. The dessert rose is a succulant type as well. Slow grower. We just cut back the backyard quite a bit also, it was a jungle we had to cut down a few things.

By the way I was using S2K hosting, and went to another site I was using before I found out about the one here. I did't know you could post pictures the size I wanted on the other site , thought you had to use thumb nails. Learn something new everyday. This picture hosting thing is a little new to me. Anyway I figured it out. :lol:

I'm glad that worked for you!

Mine are actually hosted on Photobucket (sorry Chad!). :oops:

Anyway, that windchime must sound pretty when a breeze comes along. I can imagine relaxing in that backyard quite nicely!

Thanks Stephanie. the back yard is quite relaxing in all seasons except now......way to hot, but we have a huge kid pool we fill up every now and then.

And nice Garden arkess. Looks like that took alot of work, I ventured for just tomatoes this year, maybe some more vegi's next spring. Was thinking of a fall/winter garden but not sure yet. If i am to do it I need to get on it.

Hey my dessert rose picture disappeared, what up with that? oh well.
