I do not by any means, have a green thumb but dagnabit I want one. I have been admiring the cool garden lady’s yummy landscaping for a few summers now, and every time I see it I just want to go over and introduce myself and get a good look at it. She lives nearby so this afternoon when I saw that she was having a yard sale I knew it would be a great opportunity to meet her and also scavenge for some goods for my own pad. Did I mention that I love garage sales?

That’s her above, along with photos of her lovely front and back yard. She had lots of goodies for sale, but I’ll get to that soon enough. I didn’t ask for it, but I think she could tell that I felt like a kid in a candy store with my huge grin and wide eyes, and proceeded to take me on a tour of her garden–along with detailed descriptions of each plant and how to care for them. Her front yard was almost completely void of grass and was beyond beautiful with a diverse selection of perennials, annuals, and the cutest little trees I have ever seen. The backyard was equally as fabulous, and she even had a veggie garden complete with potatoes and corn (apparently the corn usually suffers due to greedy squirrels) .

More after the jump…
