Welcome to Fertilizer Friday.....Tootsie style :)
I'm so happy it's Friday~ WOOHOO!
This week I thought I would share our front yard .....Gracie seems to find it fascinating so let's see what has kept her occupied for the last 30 minutes.

The view from the front porch
Shelia calls this thing ' the finger plant' I don't know the name either. Mammaw & Poppaw gave us this plant about 7 years ago and I have to keep it well trimmed. :) See that TEXAS sized ivy on the left....that was started from clippings ( rooted in water ) several years ago~
this is what's behind the finger plant
please pardon the semi wilted ivy.....we still haven't had any rain and no chance in sight.
Sprinklers are going every morning & night right now. Then I spend about an hour every night watering the potted plants and sweet talking them....lol. Do you talk to your plants? I do. :)
The ice cream parlor set I've had for over 15 years....{ & there is at least that many coats of paint on it. }
This end piece to a park bench is a favorite find of mine about 5 years ago....still love it.
Now, let's see what's blooming.
white climbing roses and pink knockout roses....
the knockouts weren't blooming much.....they come in spurts....bloom like crazy....then wait a few weeks for new growth.....then bloom again. I tell you.....this is a real winner for low maintenance. { I tend to neglect the front a little....I spend my time in the back yard so low or no maintenance is key here } :)
I adore this little bird bath
Well, that's the tour of the front gardens....Ya'll make sure & visit Tootsie Q @ http://tootsietime.blogspot.com~ she ROCKS!
Thank you so much for coming by & have a GREAT weekend!
Hugs~ J
Beautiful shades of yellow & pink....
The scent of roses in the air....
