the perennial gardens meander a short distance from the potager to the house...
talking that walk on the gravel path to chase the chickens out of the mulch snip some herbs makes the chores to and from the garden that much more lovely
here's a look at some perennial combinations I like...
ninebark and a varigated willow shrub
primrose almost in bloom, hostas and rocks... rocks give such great depth and texture to a garden
peony and shasta daisy... though not lasting long, the peony's leaves are a favorite of mine in arrangements or do well alone in an old bottle
barberry bush and purple salvia
walker's low (a purple catmint) and that lovely ninebark again
a baby and his mother (a perennial favorite)
inside the farmhouse...
at the barn sale here, I purchased this table from Amy of Eclectique Boutique (a great shop in Plano, IL) and it has transformed my downstairs...
some Waverly fabric has made it's way home to our farmhouse, and I can't wait to share all that I am working on inside
