The variety of plants in your spaces is always so impressive. There are so many cool and interesting things, it must be such a joy to spend time in the garden.

I really love how it changes and there is always something blooming. Most of the fruit is done flowing (except the strawberry, raspberry and elderberry). Next up will be the poppies, then the swamp rose, the regular roses, the hibiscus, the never ending bean blooms and finally the weed ๐
That sounds heavenly. Are most of these things that you and your partner have added or was some of it there beforehand? It seems like you guys really put a lot of work and care into your garden and surrounding areas. You should be proud, it's all so beautiful!
The dream of having a large garden is one of the main reasons we moved to the country!
We planted most of what I've shown here apart from the honeysuckle, sour cherry (we added two more!), chokecherry, and spirea (added 3 more lol). It takes up most of our free time from May through October and we are so grateful for it.
Edit: I should say we start lots of things from seed and we buy perennials on sale as much as possible or buy really young whips or crowns for things like the apple trees or asparagus.
