Photo Essay by Lynda McKinney Lambert<\/span><\/h3>\n

<\/h2>\n

Tell\u00a0 me about your\u00a0 \u00a0favorite flower?\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

I’d like to hear all about YOUR\u00a0 garden.<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

Is it a container garden?<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

Is it a collection of potted plants placed in various places in your home or outside?<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

\u00a0Is your garden a typical flower garden somewhere outside?<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n
\n

The smallest spaces can become a lovely little garden!\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

~Lynda McKinney Lambert<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u00a0I have flower gardens in all sorts of places in my yard. <\/i><\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

Today I am sharing some photos of my Mossy Rock Garden.<\/i><\/h3>\n

It is a tiny triangle-shaped space beside our porch.\u00a0<\/i><\/h3>\n

Mossy rocks define the space and inside the garden are Hosta Plants and\u00a0 Crop Rock plants.\u00a0<\/i><\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>

Mossy Rocks Garden
I planted shade plants in this triangle-shaped space.<\/p><\/div>\n

I put some ceramic sculptures into this triangle and a wonderful birdbath base holds a reflecting ball I brought home from Austria one summer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>

Mossy Rocks Garden fits nicely beside the porch. This area is shaded most of the day.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Look close – can you see a SNAIL and a FROG? Schmolly the SNAIL and Theodora, the FROG – are ceramic sculptures made by Ilsa Barry, a librarian from Burlington, KY. She is our daughter and she made them as GIFTS to us one year.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What you NEED:<\/span><\/em><\/h2>\n

_A little space in your yard.<\/p>\n

_Plant only one or two types of plants. Keep it SIMPLE.<\/p>\n

_Add a a piece of sculpture, old bird bath,\u00a0 reflecting ball, or some pottery.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There you ARE! <\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

You\u00a0 can make your own\u00a0 little\u00a0 garden.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n
