GBDW – Entrance Gardens Wrap-Up

By Nancy J. Ondra – Posted in: Garden Design

Just a few links this month, so let’s get right to them:

Garden Bloggers’ Design Workshop – Entrance Gardens (Nan at Gardening Gone Wild): Kick-off post for this month’s topic.

Garden Walls and Fences (Cameron at Designing Your Home): Originally written for last month’s GBDW, Cameron’s post on her front-yard cottage garden works just as well for this topic.

Working on the Weekend (Jayne at Jayne’s Country Garden): Instead of living with a foundation planting of sickly hollies, Jayne renovated the area from the ground up to get a fresh new look.

Have You Got Space for Wildflowers in Your Garden? (Claire at Plantpassion): Claire turned a tough-to-mow grass strip along the road into a colorful mini-meadow. She posted an update with more pictures and a list of the wildflower ingredients in Wildflowers in a Small Space Update.

Thanks to all who participated by reading and/or posting this month!

Nan gardens on 4 acres in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. In the firm belief that every garden ought to have a pretentious-sounding (or at least pretentious-looking) name, she refers to her home grounds as "Hayefield." There, she experiments with a wide variety of plants and planting styles, from cottage gardens and color-based borders to managed meadows, naturalistic plantings, and veggies--all under the watchful eyes of her two pet alpacas, Daniel and Duncan.
