I like that garden!

Wow, a real haven.
What a glorious garden .. So much love has gone into this. And to think it is only 6 years old .. 😀
So much serene beauty!
Love the grey kitty!
Looks majestic in its own skin…er, hair.
Beautiful!! We love gardening, but haven’t quite got to this level of artistry yet! Thank you for sharing this, it is truly inspiring.

It’s a remarkable garden.
Gorgeous! I think I’ve found my new “home office.” 🙂
Wow! That is a lot of work. But, gratifying to enjoy and show to visitors.
