The Patio Garden Changes

30 Wednesday Mar 2016

If you read my posts and/or live in Southern California, you’re aware that we are still struggling with a drought.  Last summer we maintained the yard as best we could, minimizing our watering schedule, mulching the planting beds and removing plants as they died of thirst.  As a garden enthusiast I was in denial.  I did some research into plants that were drought resistant, but never pulled the trigger on actually planting or buying those plants.  I was in a garden funk.  Now, determined to make some improvements, I’ve started on the planting bed adjacent to the patio.

BEFORE:

Garden, Home and Party: patio garden change

Note: While I love a good before and after, I’m not always willing to show the before. This is taking some courage on my part to let you see how horrible this flower bed became. (This picture was taken in January of this year) 😦

The Japanese boxwoods were transplants (3 years ago) to begin with.  It was a surprise to me that they all survived, but they never truly thrived.  Then my gardener decided he needed to hedge them more frequently than he should have.  This is the result.  It’s my experience that once a portion of the boxwood dies back, even with trimming and cleaning up the boxwood they rarely flourish again.  So, a clean sweep was made of the flower bed, except for the Iceberg roses, which have become a mainstay since they seem to be happy no matter what.  And I kept my Eden climber, for pretty much the same reason.

I decided to remove the Cecile Brunner rose since it had become so large and very high maintenance.  I wanted to plant some sun loving plants below so I removed it. More on that later.

Garden, Home and Party: Patio Garden, finally

Without the boxwood we needed some bender board.  Mr. B. did a great job of installing the redwood bender board I chose (as opposed to the synthetic product).  I know there’s more longevity with the synthetic, but I like the look of the wood, so we’ll see how long it lasts.

Garden, Home and Party: patio garden change

The ‘to do’ list for this area was:

  1. Remove the Cecile Brunner rose – done
  2. Remove the Japanese boxwood around the patio – done
  3. Amend the soil with an organic compost planting mix – done
  4. Plant a border plant such as Polygala ‘Petite Butterfly’ (this plant is drought resistant and blooms nearly year round here in Southern California.

AFTER:

I confess, while several of my sweet readers asked when I was going to show this planting renovation, I was waiting for the delphiniums to bloom and the Polygala to fill in a bit.

Garden, Home and Party: patio flower bed, finally

The Iceberg are just about to pop into bloom, the Polygala ‘Petite Butterfly’ are filling in, the heliotrope seem happy and the delphinium need to be staked, always a precaution since they are often top heavy, especially if we get any rain.

Garden, Home and Party: Patio garden, finally

The only drought resistant plant is the Polygala, but the delphiniums are going to live only through summer, so I’ll most probably replace them with lavender.  The heliotrope may outgrow this space, but I hope not.

Here’s the final plant list:

Polygala ‘Petite butterfly’ – border plant; drought resistant; will grow to 2′ wide and 2′ high at maturity; it’s an evergreen in our zone 10 and blooms most of the summer:

Garden, Home and Party: patio garden, finally

Delphinium: 1-2′; come in a variety of colors, most in purple, lavender and blue shades. Toxic to humans if consumed.

Garden, Home and Party: patio garden, finally

Heliotrope; 1-2′; the flower is scented.  The plant is just this side of the delphinium in the picture.

The extra space around the plants are to give them plenty of room to grow, I’ll take pictures this summer and share the progress.

Garden, Home and Party: patio garden, finally

One last garden note, I cut the Cecile Brunner down and it took most of a morning. Cutting is easy but cutting up the canes for the recycle bin, not so much.  So we left the stump, which is sizeable as the rose has been planted for years.  Now I have 4 pretty strong canes coming out of the stump, my thought is to leave them, see if they’ll bloom and hope that, since the canes are small (like a new bare root rose) that it will be manageable for a year or two.  Any experience with this situation? (See it on the far right of the image below?)

Garden, Home and Party: garden patio, finally

Now I think we’re ready for spring/summer outdoor relaxation.  Since I’ve prepared for warmer weather, we’ll probably get some remnants of El Niño, which eluded us this winter. 🙂

Happy Spring ~ Happy Easter

I’m always excited for spring.  I hope you stopped by earlier this month and checked out the vast array of ideas for the season via Project Design Now – Spring Mantles.  There are some great ideas for decorating—and not just the mantle from the team of design enthusiasts that participated!

This beauty was one of my favorites…Ciao Newport Beach created the fresh, spring look

Spring brings some new bird friends to the area…I’ve spotted a blue bird on my walks, not as vibrant as this fellow, but still very pretty and we’ve had up to 6 Robin Red Breasts visit our birdbath at the same time!

For me spring always means spending more time in the garden.  Warm days, cool nights.  Sparkling sunshine (have you ever noticed how the light changes with the season.  Spring has it’s own special, sparkly light).

The patio bed needed a major renovation.  I’ve completed this space and will share a post about it, and other little changes in the garden, later.

It’s a dream of mine to be able to walk through my garden and come up with a bouquet as wonderful as this!  I am growing sweet peas, I hope they provide me with bundles of blooms.

Easter eggs whether chocolate or real are a staple for Easter.  There have been some really pretty ideas for dying eggs.

So if you haven’t dyed your eggs yet, visit HERE to receive step-by-step guidance on these beauties (above) and HERE for a general overview of how to dye Easter eggs.

Spring also brings with it the chance prepare a few more meals on the BBQ and to generally lighten up on the mouth watering calorie laden casseroles.  True confession, I still enjoy the occasional casserole even during the summer.

These lovely to look at tea sandwiches made me want to plan a spring tea party for a few friends!

This meal above is pretty typical of our traditional Easter dinner.

If you saw this recent post, you know I love to set a table.  These charming Spring/Easter tables give me some ideas for the upcoming season.

One last note, if you haven’t already filled an Easter basket with a few goodies for yourself, I’d like to mention the newest book by Kristen Woodson Harvey, Lies and Other Acts of Love which will be released April 5th.  If you pre-order from the Design Chic blog site, you’ll automatically be entered to win a $1,000 gift card to Shop Design Chic their online store.

I’m excited to reviewing this wonderful book on April 5th right here.

 

What are you doing this season.  Special plans for Easter Sunday?  I wish you a happy spring and all the “new beginnings” it can bring, and a very happy Easter.  ♥ Karen

 

 

 

Coffee and the machines that prepare it for us

coffee machines

I first started drinking coffee when I was in my late teens.  It was a bit of an acquired taste for me and I added half and half and sugar.  When I met/married Mr. B he had lived in Germany for 2 years and loved well brewed coffee.  I dropped the sugar once I tasted a really good cup of coffee and have never looked back, but adding half and half is still my first choice when drinking the dark pick-me-up.  Whipped cream and cinnamon is welcome on a cold day!

Garden, Home and Party: Coffee in kitchens

I  enjoy 1 1/2 – 2 cups every morning but am pretty cautious about drinking it past noon as it keeps me awake.  Through the years we’ve had a variety of different machines to prepare our coffee, including a French press—some of the best coffee was made using our French press.  So today’s post will include some very pretty kitchens and their placement of a coffee maker of some kind.

This is one of my favorite kitchen ideas…utility mixed with the right amount of art and flowers.  If I was confident I could style shelves this well, I’d definitely go for open shelving in some part of the kitchen next time.

Garden, Home and Party: coffee in kitchens

Oh, and the inspiration for this post was an article in the New York Post talking about how coffee can help reverse liver damage from drinking alcohol.  I don’t drink that much but I do enjoy a glass of wine after work most evenings, so I thought this might be a win-win. 🙂

Now here is where it’s crazy in the GHP house.  We own this beauty.  It makes espresso and steams milk…it’s very pretty, however, we own a drip maker as well.  Seriously, Mr. B!?  My kitchen counter space is limited…2 coffee machines?!

Garden, Home and Party: coffee in kitchens

Garden, Home and Party: coffee in kitchens

After whining discussing this with family, I was given this clever machine by our California kids.  It makes espresso and a regular cup of coffee, all from one machine.

Garden, Home and Party: coffee in the kitchen

But, (there’s always a but) it’s an expensive cup of either espresso or coffee, comparatively.  And environmentally safe disposal of the pods is a bit of a headache.  I love the sleek lines and I appreciate only one machine on the counter.  Am I ever satisfied? Um, maybe not.

The forethought of this kitchen design feature is pretty cool.  A coffee cupboard that has it’s own water source.  And you can close the doors when not in use.  Maybe in another house.

The coffee maker in this kitchen has the bonus of a shelf for coffee cups…convenient.

This lovely kitchen has what looks to be a stove top percolator…a blast from the past. Fitting for such a beautiful kitchen.

An Ikea kitchen, isn’t it pretty?  It looks like their coffee source is an espresso maker tucked in the back corner.Garden, Home and Party: Coffee in the kitchenGarden, Home and Party: Coffee in the kitchenCoffee makers continue to change and possibly improve.

This is a Siphon Coffee maker from Williams Sonoma.

I haven’t read the reviews, but it looks pretty, doesn’t it?

Tell me, are you a coffee drinker?  Several of my friends won’t touch the stuff. If you are a coffee drinker, do you make your own or rely on Starbucks, Peets or some other fabulous coffee house?  Have a great Wednesday and a beautiful upcoming weekend!  ♥ Karen

Project Design: How To Style Your Spring Mantel — Two Ways

#ProjectDesignNow

Garden, Home and Party: Design Project

Let me begin by saying how honored I am to be here among the creative women of each of the sites linked below.

SPRING is right up there with autumn for me.  I love both seasons equally.  Nature provides us with so many visual inspirations this time of year.  So when it came to creating a Spring Mantle (two ways), I knew I’d have fun working on the assignment.

Full disclosure, this lovely bouquet was a gift for my late January birthday from my sweet daughter-in-law.  It positively is the picture of spring with tulips and anemones, so I had to start early on my spring mantle ideas.

My first spring mantel is fairly simple.  I’ve been attempting to declutter all around the house and this mantle reflects my version of restraint. 🙂

GHP: #ProjectDesignNow

The Hare graphic came from The Graphics Fairy.  I printed it on vellum and cut it to fit a frame I had in my stash.  I framed it over a page from an old book.  The Graphics Fairy has a library of free graphics.  I can usually find something fun for any occasion.

Garden, Home and Party: ProjectDesignNow

Garden, Home and Party: #ProjectDesignNow

I collect nests and when I find an abandoned nest on one of my walks, I always bring it home with me.  The metal rabbit stand is something I’ve had for years.  It’s meant to hold a pillar candle, but I’ve used it for candy and now nest-holding at Easter.

Garden, Home and Party: #ProjectDesignNow

For spring and summer I turn to my glass candle holders, the candles are the best buy around, from Trader Joe’s.  They are dripless and unscented and value priced for $3.99 for a box of 8.  At my TJ’s they come in ivory and white.

Garden, Home and Party: #ProjectDesignNow

My second spring mantle is a little different—more of a nod to the delights of Easter through a child’s eyes. Being a grandma does this to a person! 🙂

Garden, Home and Party: #ProjectDesignNow

The pink tulips from the grocery store.  They opened overnight! Tulips are one of my favorite spring flowers.  The blue vase is one of two that normally stand on either side of the mantle.  I bought them shortly after Tina of The Enchanted Home opened her online store.  The nest is the same one I used for the other mantle, but this time it’s sitting in a silver candy dish atop a few Beatrix Potter books.  I have a collection of Halcyon Day boxes and the hot air balloon egg was from Easter of 1985.  It commemorates my first trip to England, a wonderful memory. 🙂

Garden, Home and Party: #ProjectDesignNow

On the other side I have a favorite ceramic rabbit—he’s carrying real carrots and some sprigs of parsley, health food, right?  The Hare graphic is the same but the little metal birds are eating some bird seed.

One last photograph.  I kept thinking both stylings were sparse.  My sweet daughter-in-law suggested I try the clock that normally lives on the mantle, in addition to the rest. Here it is…too crowded?  I think I like it better without, maybe I am learning to appreciate the less is more trend!  🙂

Now to Table settings with a touch of whimsey…

I have enjoyed setting a table since I was a little girl.  Once I moved into my own apartment I found any and every excuse to have people over for a meal.  It was very brave of my friends to accept since I wasn’t a very accomplished cook back in the day. The joy was, and still is, the creative process of setting the table.

Garden, Home and Party: setting the table

Once a new bride, I used my china, crystal and silver for every dinner party we hosted. With time, I realized that it was just as much fun, if not more, to keep it casual. Today, I still enjoy setting a formal table for the right occasion, but I mostly use my everyday pottery / porcelain dishes, and simple glassware.  I interchange my sterling flatware with a couple of other, more casual, sets of flatware depending on the dishes I’m using.

of course I have my ruler handy when setting the table to make sure the utensils and plates are the appropriate distance from each other and the edge of the table. 🙂

I enjoy the fun of thinking of new ways of setting a table, and find there are lots of out of the box ideas online that inspire creating a table the reflects a season or a theme. A bit of whimsey never hurts.

Last summer my friend Wendy hosted a birthday celebration.  I love her use of Lori Mitchell figures that reflect summer fun.

Shells were on the table as well as her beautiful crystal bowl filled with water and floating candles.

My winter birthday was celebrated at Carla’s, where she used a winter wonderland theme.  It was lovely and worked well with our cooler than usual weather at the time.

One year for St. Patrick’s Day I planted little pots of 4-leaf clover that Trader Joe’s sold and then gave each guest a chocolate leprechaun.  I enjoy using nursery plants for the table, you can plant them in the garden afterwards. 🙂

Easter of 2014 I pulled out the Beatrix Potter figures and a few of the Beatrix Potter books I used to read to my kids (and now read to our granddaughters).  I planted a concrete planter with sweet pea and viola.  The violet china pattern was my grandmother’s, and a friend made the runner {thank you Gretchen}

This image inspired a table setting of my own when hosting our birthday group.  The guests of honor, Tom and John, identical twins, enjoy an October birthday and I felt it called for something more masculine.

This was my version… {sorry for the glare coming through the window}

Last month I hosted a birthday dinner for Mr. B and our youngest son’s birthdays.  I wanted to keep it simple and decided this rusty urn went well with the rustic look of my Jan Barboglio candle holders.  I filled the urn with tree fern from the yard and added a bag of Granny Smith apples.  The candles could have been taller but we didn’t light them since we ate early.

Moss on a dining table is one of my favorite uses of the sheet moss sold at craft stores. I love the earthy feel to it.  Mixed with roses and other flowers, it’s natural and lovely and transports us to an outdoor setting, even indoors.

Garden, Home and Party: table setting

Setting the table in an outdoor “room” is where you can enjoy mixing things up a bit. Setting the table with a moss base and using terra cotta pots as the candle holders is clever and fitting for a autumn gathering.  The twigs and berries conjure up an image that a gust of wind blew these pieces to the table top.  This same setting could be recreated indoors.

I’ll end with a table setting compliments of Martha Stewart.  Woodland creatures, birch tree-looking candles and small pots of moss or fern complete the look.  It’s whimsy at its best. 🙂

I’m out of time, but I’d like to invite you to visit my friend, Kelly over at “talk of the house” for further inspiration for table setting.  This talented blogger takes table setting creativity to a new level.

How do you entertain?  Is there ever a bit of whimsey to your table settings?
