APRIL SHOWERS NOURISHED MY GARDENS!

My front and back yard gardens are growing like crazy and I haven't given them Miracle Gro yet!
Here is the front yard--all garden with pathway. To the left near the fence you can see the frame for my hammock swing where I will enjoy sunny days soon!
 
I have bunny rabbit statues sprinkled around the yard and you can see a few if you look!
 
 
The hand  sign points the way for cat lovers. 
The backyard is a good size and I have a small patio, oval grass lawn area, pathways, and lots of plants.
In the corner at rear left is a bench that will soon be surrounded by my wrought iron gazebo.
 
 
I have gargoyles on guard at the gate entrance area!
 
I will have to do close-up shots of the flowers next time. A storm came in as I was trying to photograph areas/ But you can see how much it has grown in a little less than a year!
It is so wonderful to sit outside and enjoy it.
