Highland BLOOMS with lush profusion

Another gorgeously lush small garden on our neighborhood association's garden tour was right across the street from where I was stationed, so I actually got to visit it.  This garden was packed with people throughout the day. 

I'll share a few photos that Ricky took, but there are more pictures of this site on Facebook's Highland Experience community page, plus the The Shreveport Times had a great photo gallery from this garden as well.

Every space was utilized and enhanced with flowers

It wouldn't be a Highland garden without the unexpected--thus, a blue sink
hides in the corner of this homeowner's garden!


Backyard red chairs for resting and admiring the vegetable patch and other flower beds
in the back corner of the yard.

There were other areas of this garden that Ricky didn't photograph, e.g. a corner vegetable garden, close-ups of the lush beds in the backyard area, the front porch and fountain in front of the home on the walkway.  Add in tea from a new shop in the neighborhood, TWINE--Tea and Wine on Line (Avenue), and this garden was a delight to the senses.
