This picture was taken on August 15, 2014. This flower bed is on 2 sides of a cement slab we up in next to the garage.

This is where I like to sit with a cocktail after a long day working in the yard and watch the sunset.

Love gardening in Iowa

Well, we have made it to 2015. I will be putting pictures of my flowers and flower beds/vegetable garden on my blog. I hope whoever sees them enjoys them. Here are a few pictures of my yard in 2014. These are pictures of my flower bed that runs along side the road in front of our house.

This is an old wheelbarrow I bought at a yard sale and made a fairy garden in it.

This is an old stove that was sitting along the road for free and I just had to have it.

My friend and I spent a day going to garage sales. I picked up this alligator for $6. I love him. On the right is a garden cultivator that was in a ditch on my husband's farm. I just had to have it too.

Not sure but I am thinking that this is a Honeysuckle vine. I guess maybe I should have trimmed back the dead stems from the year before. I just thought it looked rather unique.

I think my dh called this rusty piece of machinery a cream separator.

As you can see, I love going to garage sales and second hand stores.

This old pump came from my dh's farm. I wish I would have gotten one with the handle still intact.

Here it is as a whole bed.

That's all for now. I will post pictures of another flower area next time. I have to have something to do since I can not be outside tending to my yard.
