Black Mountain

The greening of the mountains from Tanbark Ridge overlook, elevation 3175 feet, Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina. The road seen in upper left is the parkway as it continues northeast. Can you see the little houses, including my favorite, the red roofed one?

Art in Bloom Garden Tour House No. Three (duplicate of When I was 69)

 

Art in Bloom Garden Tour House No. Three

 Just across the street from the former (No. Two) house was the No. Three home. Up a steep hill we climbed to the back garden, and it was worth it!


Wonderful stone work throughout


From the top of the drive







Great to have labels on a lot of plants, but not all! We kept commenting how there were no weeds! (I imagine a landscaping crew on their knees plucking weeds out)

My friend Helen talked with the artist...






Bill said he was taking photos to hopefully publish in a newspaper (unnamed)

The photographer, Bill, said he'd take our photo on my camera...so I said sure...but we didn't even know the lady in the hat...no problem. He started taking them before we posed, and I think that was best.

On to the next area, in an older part of Black Mountain. Sharing with Living in Black Mountain.
Sharing with Garden Bloggers Bloom Day for July.

And check out the Gallery Exhibit of the Floral art for this fund raiser at my blog about art:

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
