White Wednesday (in the garden)

Many bloggers do "White Wednesday" posts, where they feature something in a shade of white, and since I am such a devotee of white, this has got me thinking that maybe I should join in. Today happens to be a rare middle of the week day off, and I spent all morning working in the garden. I have been dividing perennials, moving plants, planting shrubs. Boy, I am worn out! It's been since last spring that I spent so many hours straight tending to my favorite pasttime. Considering how much time I was working outside, the inside has been sadly neglected. So today my white wednesday post will be of white elements in my garden at present. Right now it is still mostly green, so this is really a green and white theme.



White geraniums in terra cotta pots are classic garden pairings. The white bowl they are sitting in is a no-longer-functional fountain that provides some vetical structure.



An urn potted with boxwood sits atop a white concrete pedestal in the flower bed in front of the house. The white door to the garage draws the eye forward.



White-edged hostas border the east side garden area.



A rhododendron thrives in deep shade beneath a sprawling ash tree.



A 'summer snowflake' viburnum borders the front porch. The little white blossoms appeared overnight.

Geraniums grace a green floral patterened bistro chair.

White serves to brighten darker areas of the garden and stands out beautifully in the glow of candlelight. Wishing you all a lovely Wednesday!

Until next time...

Anne
