Think you have a lot on your plate to get down, taking it a bit at a time, and not getting overwhelmed and just being thankful for small progresses will help it go better. So exciting to be planning the wedding there :) Happy to visit you today, it has been a while :) Marilyn @ MountainTopSpicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00600290895531484438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5871728063253895865.post-76319626768352786402017-01-15T20:59:36.574-06:002017-01-15T20:59:36.574-06:00I can't wait to see what you plant and do to t...I can't wait to see what you plant and do to the driveway. I think a split rail fence sounds perfect! I am planning to put a short span of split rail up in my front yard...eventually. It's on the mile long list of things to do. LOL! The lantern is adorable and the tree idea is so neat! I hope you're able to do something with it but I understand that would be a huge temptation for the dogs. And I am still loving Wyndham!

I am wondering if we have a different species and or that I grew mine all from seed?? Anyway it might be worth experimenting with.<br />Everything will be glorious!<br />Happy New Year!<br />JemmaJemma@athomewithjemmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01137225389791605398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5871728063253895865.post-1080204925497066362017-01-11T20:48:23.655-06:002017-01-11T20:48:23.655-06:00Hi Cecilia ... you will be one busy lady but I kno...Hi Cecilia ... you will be one busy lady but I know you will enjoy what you do. I am surprised the deer have not eaten your Narcissus. They eat mine as soon as the bloom opens. You will get a lot of suggestions for plants and I am sure you will make everything beautiful for the wedding. The Blue Sage that Cecilia at My Thrift Store Addiction would be perfect. Good luck.<br />Hugs,<br />Audrey Z.

I would definitely recommend them. They come in many sizes, shapes, and colors. And they are well suited for that location. Maybe a giant turk's cap ? I had monarch's hanging on mine this year. Another great one for our winged friends is a buddleia. The lantana can get large, and there is a low growing one for the front of the bed. If you didn't want a wooden fence you could always purchase the metal pieces that stick in the ground. Re: the fairy door...I also have a similar hole in one of my trees and I want to build a small door to stick there. You should be able to whoop that out quickly! I'm surprised your narcissus is blooming before mine! and.... STILL love that dragon!

I would be hiring a gardener/landscaper, lol, so am no help. I would think about what would be blooming when they marry though.<br /><br />Good luck with that purging. It is taking me forever to clear out my craft space, which will be my new painting space.

I had problems with deer eating all my flowers at my old home and never quite mastered outsmarting them with plants they didn't like. But my one suggestion is ornamental plants. They can grow really big and come in different colors. I ordered purple seeds but haven't had a chance to start them. Hopefully, I'll get them going indoors next month.

The pretty blue flowers are often mistaken for lavender. It's drought resistant and the deer don't touch it. Plus it has the rustic wildflower look perfect for the wedding ;) My thrift store addictionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13158685096212282319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5871728063253895865.post-71799849523055051052017-01-10T10:54:37.570-06:002017-01-10T10:54:37.570-06:00I'm horrible at plant selection Cecilia but I&...I'm horrible at plant selection Cecilia but I'm sure you have very creative and knowledgeable readers that can help. I'm sure whatever you choose will be beautiful. <br /><br />Wyndham is a perfect name for your friendly dragon.<br /><br />I look forward to seeing what you create with your new Cameo Silhouette.
