Eliza Waters 
Truly lush! It looks like you would be invisible in that same spot now!
IKR? When I wrote about ‘exuberance’ on Monday, I had to show what I meant. Nature always is amazing to me. 🙂
Thank you, Audrey, you might be right about that! 😉
Wow! I can even see a bigfoot up the back there in a hammock Eliza 🤣 You could get lost in your garden, hope you’ve got a GPS dear lady 🤗❤️🙏
Ha, yes… a place I love getting lost in. 😉
What a beautiful garden. I could spend a lot of time there!
Thank you, Caroline. It is my happy place, for sure!
What a difference in a month! Equally beautiful though. Love it!👏🌸
Thank you, Flavia. Nature is so amazing. 🙂
So soulful and beautiful, Eliza! Thank you for this precious share! Much appreciated! Light and blessings to you 🙏✨🌻🌲💖
Many thanks, Susana! 🙏🏼
Lovely
Merci, Sheree 🙂
Looking good. We are in drought conditions so we’re a little crispy out there.
Yes, things here are a bit dry as well. The view above slopes down and faces north, so I think it helps retain moisture.
What a wonderful view to start the day!
Thanks, Alice. I love seeing the low light shining through the forest, makes me very happy. 🙂
That is quite a difference! I think beautiful gardens like yours are the best things the summer has to offer. 🙂 Every week probably brings new flowers to enjoy.
Yes, even I was surprised to see the difference. Small daily changes add up over time. Of course, the reverse is happening now with the cooler weather. The show never stops. Thanks, Barbara. 🙂
Wow! That whole scene is so inviting. You & B. have done a great job.
Thank you, we really love it here!
wish there was a love icon with the like one!
🙂 Thanks, Karen!
We’re finally noticing shorter days here. It won’t be long until the equinox, but the beauty just keeps coming.
The exuberance of late summer is wonderful. The cool nights here are beginning to show, the flowers are turning to seed, readying for the dormant season ahead. The last hurrah!
Beautiful capture, Eliza. I love the juxtaposition of a cultivated garden with a natural green space–so lovely!
Thank you, Tina. That ‘window’ into the forest is particularly lovely this time of year. Worth getting up for!
🙌🏼🤩🙌🏼 gorgeous setting
Thank you, Susan! 💕
I love seeing pictures like this.
Glad to hear it, Anne. This time of year is so special.
Wow! What a luscious garden!
Thank you, Hien. My big play yard! 🙂
Both shots show off a beautiful garden, Eliza. However, it looks as though the trees in the background of yesterday’s shot are already dropping some leaves leading into the fall season, while letting that early morning sun light up the space.

Thank you, Kris! While there has been some early leaf drop mostly from cherry trees, the main difference is the first is when the sun was low at dawn and the second was taken closer to mid-day when the canopy shades the forest.
Oh, it does look lovely at this time of year and at that time of day. What a lovely view from your house. 😃
Thank you, Cathy. Outdoor time is the best, taking advantage of it while I can. 🙂
Me too!
Whoa, that’s some green thumb you’ve got, Eliza!! Hard to believe what a difference 30 days makes!
IKR? I was amazed to see the contrast. Seeing it every day, I don’t notice the changes, until a look back opens my eyes. Thanks, Debbie. 🙂
What an outstanding garden, Eliza! I so very much enjoyed seeing the two different months and all the beauty and vibrant life you have conjured here. Wonderful to see you in your garden, too.
Thank you, Jet. Just me and the bees, hanging out! 😉
Yes, but still beautiful!
Thank you, Laurie!
Heavens to Murgatriod!!! 😀 … you gotta love greenery doing its thing! 😀
That’s for sure, nature rules!
Still lovely 😊
🙂 Thank you, Belinda!
What a beautiful place to be! And voluminous growth, all right.
Thank you, Tom. My soul is happy there. 🙂
I’m happy just looking at it!
😀
What beautiful landscaping you have done. I’m sure it’s lovely year round.
Thank you, Rebecca. Spring and summer are my favorite seasons because I love to garden; while fall and winter, which have their own beauty, somehow pale in comparison. 😉
No wonder your garden is your happy place! So beautiful.
Thank you, Monika!
wow..very nice..
Thank you, Dymoon!
Glorious! Is that you in the August photo?
Thank you– yes, that’s me, in my glory!
Wow! so lovely. The morning breeze with mix of various scents must be divine.
Thank you, Rupali. I love it here. 💕
Who wouldn’t 😊
You’ve created a wonderful space of beauty and peace.🙂
Thank you, S! I really love living here, heaven on earth for me. 🙂
So green!
Thank you, summer here is such a contrast to winter!
Gorgeous!!!
Thank you, Denise! 🙂
