Revisiting May’s garden in British Columbia

Happy Monday everyone ! We ended last week revisiting one of our favourite gardens , and we ’re starting this week the same way . Today it ’s May Kald ’s beautiful garden on Vancouver Island in British Columbia . The last time we natter with May was last month ( refresh your memoryHERE , where you ’ll find links to premature visit , too ) .

This time she says,“The rainfall have follow ! look around my garden at this time of year you could tell that our summertime drouth is over and fall is coming . The grass is gullible again , folio and flower colours are more muted , pop out to turn , with stout fuchsias clear up the fading hydrangea blossoms .

“ Very shortly the marvellous burnished leave of fall will take over the show . Rainy and brumous days alternate with smart as a whip sunshine , which bring the former heather into bloom and mature the berries on firethorn and cotoneasters . Pampas smoke sends its feathery feather high into the sky , briefly , then is always beaten down by the first lumbering deluge . Lacey , my Shetland sheepdog , can stop looking for cool fly-by-night smirch to hide in and savor running around trail her testicle . ”

My gosh , May , the FUCHSIAS ! ! Careful , throwing that “ hardy ” word around , you ’ll get all us colder climate nurseryman in a tizzy , thinking we can grow fuchsias like that ! If only….sigh . Everything look beautiful , May , and Lacey is adorable ! Keep mail in these wonderful updates .
