A peek at my favorite place | Louisiana Family Photographer

Written by

A few months back I decided to take on some huge projects outside. Our landscaping at our home in between Minden and Homer, Louisiana was nonexistent. I set out to change that. After tons and tons of work, in the Louisiana heat, I absolutely love this space-my garden!

What we have planted:
Sunflowers
Zinnias
Marrigolds
Gardenias
Fairy Dust
Petunias
Rosemary
Ornamental Cabbage
Dusty Miller
Creeping Jenny
Hostas

And other things that are not coming to my mind. HA!!

I have really never been one to keep platns alive but I’ve been giving it my very, very best effort and these have (mostly) all done really well! I have been thrilled!

When the weather is cooler, or in the mornings before it’s too hot, I love sitting out and just admiring all that I’ve done. I’m impressed with myself, really. We’ve even taken Elaine’s school out to our little garden area and it was so nice!

My girls enjoy coming out here and playing around in the flower beds as well, which is probably not the best, but they haven’t killed anything yet. I’ll tell you what has caused damage though, our cats. UGH!!! They had not been nice. I try to keep them out, but that doesn’t work too well. Cats have a mind of their own, right?!

Alright, let’s see the garden!!
