What are some of your favorite flowers? This is what you put in your garden. As I walk the parks and neighborhoods I am always impressed with the different color combinations I see.

Fall flowers in a bed surrounded by a low stone wall.
Flowers gather in a bed surrounding the base of a tree. This picture was taken in California but the concept is just as popular here in Illinois.
These beautiful lilies line the front of a hedge along the highway. I wonder if the owners have more on the other side of the bushes so that they can enjoy them as much as the passing cars do?
Pink, white, red, and peach colored flowers fill this flower bed to overflowing delight.
These hot red spices grace the sidewalks of many apartment complexes in California. They seem to be in bloom every time I visit my grandchildren.
Petunias, purple leaves and yellow flowers make a great combinations for this flower bed.
Yellow cone flowers lining the fence around this children's play area look like they will withstand quite a punch.
These orange flowers are just one of the many flowers in this raised flower bed.
I think of all the flower beds I have seen and grown, I like the raised beds the most. They are easiest to keep clean and neat. And they are less prone to become weed bound. The way I garden, I need all the help I can get with keeping out the weeds.
