Through The Gate Thursday

All of these flowers are behind the fence of a large house two blocks away. The owners are white haired, but still get down on their knees to garden. I would need a crane to get me up!

What a beautiful garden they have. I would love to have flowers all over like this. I'm just not very good at gardening and I really hate the weeding part.

I would need a crane too - don't know if I could even get down. That is such a pretty array of flowers - did you walk there to take pictures? Beautiful.

So pretty! Good for that couple! They kept moving so they stay moving!

Lovely! I avoid getting down on my knees as well as at least I feel I'd need something stable to hold on to to get up again...

Gorgeous flowers! My poor little snapdragons are wilted from the cold sleep. I will get more to plant on the front porch. At least my pretty purples are in full bloom. They love all the cold and the heat.

Oh my goodness, these are gorgeous flowers and you have taken them beautifully! I think my favorite is the foxglove in your first photo. I tried growing them quite a while ago but I don't think I knew enough about them to plant them in the right spot. After seeing this one I will try again. I have mentioned it before but I always enjoy the quotes you choose.

What gorgeous flowers. I am with you and about need a crane to get me up. Then there is the skin cancer issue...I stay out of the sun as much as I can but don't think it helps at all. I feel like once you have had a spot of skin cancer it is going to pop up from then on.

What a lovely selection of flowers. So good of your neighbors to keep up with the gardening. It's not easy, I pulled weeds yesterday, and if I'm out there too long, I'm sore the next day. ; )

You have many neighbors who take care of their lawn and houses, Ginny. That doesn't always happen in a neighborhood.
