At present I wish to share some photos of a tiny yard in an surprising place in my neighborhood. I don’t know who owns it, nonetheless it actually’s clearly a labor of affection. Encountering a yard like that’s like getting a implausible present.

This backyard is nestled beneath two oak bushes in a carveout between a parking zone and an alley, simply off a significant two-lane highway. It’s packed stuffed with eclectic edging and path supplies, crops in pots and all through the bottom, and half-hidden delights.

The centerpiece of the yard is a three-level fountain.

A inventive use of branches made this path and edging.

This huge and delightful hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, Zones 9–11) in a pot should be overwintered indoors.

This trellis coated with wisteria (Wisteria sp. Zones 5–9) has just a bit bit pot of oxalis (Oxalis triangularis, Zones 7–10) hung from it with a bent shirt hanger.

Blackberry lily’s (Iris domestica, Zones 4–10) namesake shiny, berrylike seeds are the follow-up to cherry-orange flowers.
