A video tour through Anne’s Delaware garden

limited treat today ! Anne Engelking Wellman in Newark , Delaware , sent in a picture of her garden !

She says,“I filmed our very casual cottage - fashion garden all abloom and added a musical background but also caught the shuttle tweeting at the same time . Once we fenced out the herd of cervid , we could actually grow just about any bloom we want , except delphinium which sadly do n’t like our high temperature . It also briefly establish the garden through unlike season .

It has two hand - dug pond with a span progress by my husband . It took me a month of shovel to grasp the larger pool which our daughter said gave me admirable Arnold - Schwarzenegger - expressive style back muscles . We post the garden for wanton viewing from the dining room window and a glassed - in porch . My first visit every day is to check out the pool since it attracts all kinds of wildlife we never saw before it was added : foxes , hawks that take off Gaul , nifty risque herons , barred owl , etc .

There is a fence vegetable garden that gets attacked routinely by wiley Marmota monax but bring out enough tomatoes and honey oil for my married man and me besides some figs and berry , tons of wintertime squash I give away , and flowers in amongst everything . My goal is tidy sum of colors clash . Last year I try dahlia for the first time ; 2014 is the yr to put all tall blossom towards the back and dependable mulch to keep out weeds ! ”
