Today we’re visiting with Sharon Danovich Lupone in Pittsburgh. We’ve been to her garden before (Sharon’s Pennsylvania Garden, Part 2 and Sharon’s Pennsylvania Garden), and today she’s sharing some views of the garden is it moves into fall. As summer winds down, the blooms of the panicle hydrangeas (Hydrangea paniculata, Zones 3–8) take on rosey hues. Comfortable chairs invite you to sit and enjoy the garden. A pot of coleus (Coleus scutellarioides, Zones 9–11 or as an annual) give...

Today we’re seeing photos of Marina’s beautiful garden in Beeton, Ontario, which is thriving despite a challenging start. I just wanted to share a few pictures of my garden. I started it in 2018 after we moved to a newly constructed house and waited for a couple of years for our yard to be graded by the builder. Gardening at the new place proved to be difficult. Our house is built on an engineered fill with a thin layer of bad soil. To make a long story short, despite all the hardships and b...

Today’s photos come from Jonathan Harris, in Maine, who is sharing the garden around his pool, which he calls his Guster Pool Garden, because there are signs on the fence […]

Bulbs and tubers are easy to tuck into containers, and they will almost instantly transform a foliage-focused design. Here are a few favorites.

Today we are visiting Margot Navarre’s garden in Bellevue, Washington. I adore my winter and spring gardens but am getting into the summer spirit of gardening. Lysimachia (Lysimachia punctata, Zones 4–8), Alchemilla mollis (Zones 3–8), lavenders (Lavandula species, Zones 5–9) and Nepeta (Zones 3–8) all perform without a lot of water, as well as no fertilizer and no pesticides. There are lots of bees in this space—a healthy ecosystem. It is the sunniest space in my garden, so we grow ...

I like to incorporate a lot of color in my gardens. While flowers are a big part of what provides that color, foliage can also play a large role. Leaves in different shades of green, blue—and one of my favorites—purple, can be used to provide colorful interest in the garden. Fortunately, we have some great purple shrubs and trees from which to choose. These plants do well in challenging conditions, such as dry, hot, or sunny areas, and they are winter hardy as well. Here are some of my favor...

I’m always happy when garden designer Jay Sifford sends in photos. We’ve visited his beautiful garden in Charlotte, North Carolina, a few times (Jay’s Garden in North Carolina, Revisited), and today we’re checking in on his second garden up in the mountains of western North Carolina. This is year 3 of my Zone 6 North Carolina mountain garden. It has exceeded my expectations, and I had high hopes. I set out to create an immersive, pollinator-friendly, stylized meadow set atop my septic dr...

I’m Katie. I’m a proud Midwesterner, and all of these photos are from my Indiana backyard garden. By day, I am a licensed and certified speech-language pathologist. By weekend and summer, I turn full-fledged gardener and spend most of my time in my humble backyard paradise. About six years ago, I began transforming our empty, desolate, almost full-acre yard to rich, healthy ecosystems in the form of garden beds, shrubs, and trees. In addition to this, I “raise” monarchs and proudly wear ...

Today’s photos are from Dede Lifgren. Welcome to my garden in Brewster, New York (Zone 6a). I am an artist and garden lover. Much of my artwork centers around my garden. Or is it the other way around? Either way, I love to take full advantage of both! My pineapple columns and some potted impatiens (Impatiens walleriana, Zones 10–11 or as an annual) greet visitors at the entryway. In the main garden, trickling water can be heard from the fountain as you enter the property. A cypress (Chamaecy...
