So..much…color! I love how you pair so many different flowers and textures!
I love how overgrown everything looks. Gardens that are too tidy bore me. You almost forget the containers are there. I think you should give more room for statice next year. The texture is just like gomphrena.
Wow the pest found you.
This is why I'm not listed.
Wait what?!
Very nice
So lovely to see so much color. Also I love how the reoccurring saying in this video was "I did have A, but it got completely overtaken by B."
Everything looks beautiful ❤❤❤
Hi Bethany, thank you so much for mentioning varietal names for everything in your garden.
Bien lindo!!🌼🌸🌻💐💖👍👏
Son muchas flores
I love all the color!
That gomphrena stage is fantastic! Im putting nthat together next year! Thabk you for sharing!
I absolutely love the pops of coral and oranges. Your superbells double orange are such a perfect shade 😍 Obsessed! And two pumpkins coming along? This is so exciting!
