“Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life, righteousness, and honor.”
Proverbs 21:21
Happy Thursday sweet friends! It is a little soggy at my house this morning. But on the positive side, weeding in my garden will be easier due to the rainfall from Alberto.
Speaking of my garden, I am excited about my first Gardens Galore Link Party of 2018! This coming Monday, June 4 at 7 a.m. central time, the party will open. If you aren’t a blogger, you will definitely want to check out all the links for garden therapy and inspiration! Today, as a little preview of what to expect, I am sharing some features from last year’s Gardens Galore. There were so many fabulous gardens, it was impossible to try and choose. Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy a Gardens Galore sampler!

Pam, I’m excited to join you at your Gardens Galore party again this summer! We’ve been a soggy mess this week too from Alberto but hopefully are drying up and I get out and take some photographs (and weed!). I actually saw the sun come out yesterday for the first time in what feel like weeks. Thank you for sharing my Potting Shed in your sampler. I had to chuckle at ‘famous in blog land’. Look forward to seeing you for Floral Friday. ♥
Mary, your potting shed is very famous! I shared it on my FB this morning, but I couldn’t tag you. I love sharing Floral Friday with you!
Looking forward seeing more beautiful gardens this year. Thanks for hosting!
Carole, your gardens are beautiful!
What a gorgeous sampler, and I’m humbled to be included among those featured, Pam. You have me pegged accurately, lol. I look forward to you ing this group of party guests since gardening is such a major focus of my summer activity. Thank you, Pam!
*joining this group. Sorry for the typo.
Rita, I am so glad you will be joining. You have so much knowledge of gardening. Have a lovely day, we have more rain?
Pam, what a lovely group of gardens of dedicated gardeners. I hope to join your party this year. Thank you for these lovely photos, great inspiration, and for hosting.
Happy gardening!
Sandra, I am so excited to see your beautiful gardens. Have a lovely day dear friend!
They are all worth seeing again and again! Beautiful!
Jenna
Thank you dear Jenna! More rain for us today!
Such beautiful inspiration from all these gardens! If anyone enjoys touring gardens, I highly recommend Gibbs Gardens about an hour north of Atlanta. One man, John Gibbs, developed it, 100s of acres. It’s incredible and open to the public.
I have some flower beds where poison has reared it’s ugly head with all this rain. Does anybody know how to eradicate it without killing my good plants or mr having to wade in to pull it by hand?
Good morning Roxanne. We must take a trip to Gibbs Gardens this summer, it has been on my bucket list for 2 years. I don’t know how to get rid of the poison other than pulling it up by the root. Be careful. Have a lovely day, my friend!
Oh my, what gorgeous inspiration! They are all beautiful! I can’t wait to see Monday’s entries! Happy Thursday, sweet friend!
Thank you my sweet friend and have a lovely day!
Every one of the photos could make the cover of a magazine! Positively gorgeous. I’m looking forward to next week’s post for more inspiration. Have a wonderful weekend, Pam!!
Thank you Katie! Wishing you a wonderful Thursday!
I cannot possibly tell you how humbled I am that you chose one of my garden posts…beyond words. All these gardens are so amazing and I am so excited to be joining your Gardens Galore again this year. We have had record rainfall…now we need a little sunshine for the flowers to perk up. Please accept my gratitude again.
It is my pleasure, sweet friend! I can’t wait to see your gardens!
Beautiful Gardens!
Thank you Angelina!
Pam, I am so looking forward to your Gardens Galore parties again this year. I know I will develop serious garden envy! Thanks for sharing my spider lily photo today. I hope it makes it through the deluge we’re experiencing this week. When it rains, it pours…..
Looking forward to partying in the garden with you, Sandra!

I could smell the fragrances! 😀
Jennifer
Thank you Jennifer!
It’s Winter here from the first of June in Australia. My rose bushes are covered with rose hips, camellias have buds, violets are out at ground level, sweet smelling. The Jap maple is finishing its red show. The garden is not spectacular right now, but there are 5 camellia bushes, so worth the wait.
You have camellias, I didn’t know. I know they are beautiful!
Yes, very pretty and the church flower ladies like them this time of year when there are less flowers around.
What beautiful gardens:-))))
Thank you for visiting from Poland??
Thank you for featuring my Fantasy Fairy Garden Pam. I’m still working on this year’s!
It is my pleasure!
Love the she shed. So wanting to do something like that with mine but then what would I do with my saws and mower? haha Everything looks amazing.
Pam, I am dreaming of a garden shed one day!
