I thought I’d show you the front yard of one of my neighbors. They’re such a lovely elderly couple with 7 (yes seven) rescued dogs one which is named Sir Winston Churchill! Anyway, anyone that rescues dogs AND takes good care of them is all right by me!
A pretty jumble of plants around a birdbath.
Do you see the capiz chandelier hanging off the shepards hook? So cute and makes a lovely wind chime.

They have birdhouses and feeders everywhere! You should have seen all the birds and bees flying around while I took the photos!
As a matter of fact, a few weeks ago their yard was filled with sunflowers all from seeds the birds dropped. We’ve had several severe storms since then and a lot have fallen over.
Mailbox planting.
Lots of cat’s whiskers and black-eyed susans.
There are roses, lantanta, portulacca, conflowers, zinnias – so many lovely flowers.
There are cute garden sculptures all over. Lots of birdbaths. Sometimes you have to look deep into a bed to see the statue.
They have a vegetable garden in a bed on side of the yard.
See the tomato behind the flower – they’re growing LOTS of tomatoes and squash.
There are a couple of neighbors who’s garden’s I enjoy while walking Maxie and I hope to be able to photograph them and share them with you.
What a beautiful garden! Thanks for sharing it with us, Manuela!

What beautiful flowers. I hope they let you pick some for bouquets. Love the birds on a wire stand. Wonderful that they rescue.
Yes, she did say I could pick some anytime but I enjoy just looking at them in her yard.
Manuela
That sure is a beautiful garden. So many flowers and a haven for bees and birds.
They have beautiful gardens. How they manage that with seven rescue dogs is beyond me. God love them for the good home they share with the dogs. Thanks for sharing the views from your house!
Oh it’s great to have neighbors with a beautiful yard. It makes it so much nicer all the way around. (Wish my neighbors would realize they have sumac growing up the side of their house.)
Beautiful garden!
I so wish that I was able… I’m having a time with the dog-gone grasshoppers!
Gorgeous Garden!
What a delightful garden! Thank you for sharing it. I think we often plant a garden for ourselves, never realizing the joy it might bring others who pass by. It would be a delight to see this on a walk:>)
What an absolutely gorgeous yard! And I’m with you on the rescued pet thing. 😉 Thx for sharing.
How lucky you are to have neighbors with gardens like that!! That’s absolutely wonderful. I love walking by interesting yards and houses. I wish people would “landscape” for themselves and walkers, rather than for real estate agents, which is unfortunately what is mostly done in my neighborhood.
What a wonderful cottage garden they have! I love all of the jumble of pretty flowers. Thank you for sharing that !
What a pretty flower garden! I love it. And a veggie garden too! Great photos, Manuela.
Just beautiful! I love yards that are loved, and you can so tell this one is special. Such a grand collection of flowers. I can see why you enjoy walking your own dog!
xo, Jen
Wow- they do have a ton of flowers! How fun to have explored the garden with your camera. And how nice that you can enjoy this garden on your walks, too . 🙂 Sue
There’s a whole lotta gardening going on there! Pretty.
Amazing! I can barely keep my flower hanging on in this heat. Our tomatoes have already come and gone.
Wow!! It’s sooo summery-looking, and I just love a garden which attracts birds! Thanks for sharing it with us!
I love a cottage garden!
Theirs is really nice!

I would have been in heaven in that wonderful yard with my camera in tow!
Brenda
what a beautiful garden! I would love mine to be at that stage. it looks such a relaxing spot.
Thank you for the tour of your neighbor’s garden! Looks like someone I would love to visit with:) Have a blessed day my friend, HUGS!
Great garden! I love a full cottage garden. Thanks for showing.
WOW. someday. Thank you for the inspiration.
What gorgeous gardens! So many wonderful blooms. Thank you for sharing them with us.
I bet it takes all your willpower to not gather up a beautiful bouquet every time you pass by.
Now THAT’S a cottage garden – or gardenS! I’m assuming they’ve lived there for many years and that these gardens have evolved over those many years? Such beautiful flowers – and nice neighbors for letting you take pictures of their landscaping.
oh wow what a lovely garden they have! hopefully some day mine will look like that!
thanks for touring my garden manuela
