The Best Garden Pathways

Renew, refresh, get inspired. Visit your favorite garden or park, or dream about making your garden a little more special. I love gardens with pathways that invite exploration. Gardens that make you want to meander, to spend time and to contemplate the finer things of life. I love all the different colors of green in gardens. You don't necessarily have to have color in flowers to make a garden pop. Try different textures, shapes, and colors of greens. A well placed statue or urn gives the eye a place to focus and center on. A water feature can add a cooling element, and a splashing fountain can be a calming and soothing to the soul. Well designed gardens with meandering pathways with well placed plantings and focal points are truly works of art using nature as the canvas. </p>  <p align="center"><img alt="Garden Pathways" border="0" height="502" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkV0OD2KifmsLAlC8uiysG2ug0IGZFO1bq3mwAnVNqzUUZjfVUUZNJt067lTX8ETxvIX_cqekogBrSN2TsTyMPCqdtNsIklRR23QbiACk_wHwQKf3pv1G7ZPh5hnHI-zNjQh7S3wNaEmQW/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" width="370" />     <br /><font size="1">Garden Pathways</font></p>  <p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg15-t5pP9ugH8xLLKwuDy4zOp4T8PL4IMxL-NuLSSm9C4mq1_vl7JmUCyq00GZ5UXaVBcxQlCBEGemHIuU2BPNuEpnVEchYV3S-wrHtlLOcj94ISiau4A_gmBqob79dCG4G26YDxSwqrGV/s1600-h/veranda331.jpg"><img alt="Lavender Garden Pathway" border="0" height="517" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimE7bfvUrRItfIU2bnoZ9sBuTuMmt541YmIaqctINNSNToJDYnNZconiWFEBSfMLc2xMTvbpZThAB0WK9wiguVqUST3AqXdTqHSQwC1Xja-XLoMKXe7T5LegdGAOphR7GIr2Qd3X_7zhyphenhyphenK/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" width="370" /></a>     <br /><font size="1">Lavender Garden Pathway</font>     <br />Smell the lavender as you walk down the gravel path to the fountain with lily pads awaiting you.     <br />I imagine that this pool is filled with Koi and that there is a bench or <a href="http://patriciagrayinc.blogspot.com/2008/04/patio-furniture-deluxe-clover-chair.html">comfortable seating</a> on     <br />the other side to sit and contemplate.</p>  <p align="center">  <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcYRTPmljDRcvd4fQQ9ts_M_lq0SzcK_DvZOMBXViJXn4V3Jw52aP-zi7DKef0LZrlY0FPetBAEtnKun5xUalvfL7HvKJJCvXGv0E0CLNBxkTwfLrvxttqiw9ALMGV1wKF4wViTc4K3Rkl/s1600-h/veranda%5B1%5D.jpg"><img alt="Garden Pathway" border="0" height="412" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiheIifzrt3-1jMu7EZLrl4RnzMjmukOFciOsM1ZqfxD55NxS_cpPlYiwSpxSpXOa8pQ-Zy05-_vSK8wEY1Y_KyNzqYhcCeUWtTzgMw2k5qO1kA6UDbIk7cJPTZzbEcEKC0mb4M7Bjt9EMj/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" width="370" /></a>     <br /><font size="1">Garden Pathway</font>     <br />What a feat of design this elliptical planting between the slate pavers is.     <br />A well placed statue draws you to the end of this pathway.</p>  <p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbbJJiUnXsgMDwALU5bajgv3dqTKH62YuReSELSa9tZwaYvqUCnOgtVwEVjPOexUC5-lx-DI1JdETNXKwLNod21SHRsodPmNStnhS2Bn7GeQR2keTCkYKSo7l7JtUBs9N5g2_OMcr3mTPf/s1600-h/veranda338.jpg"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF70mSJkr_xDjOHUYMHW5tg-pjZ7qMC6Dv-aygwNEh2ByotM_lGswlWooPCWdMrUX9PtocBtgpRsZUvkyE8o-sKVNFFcCztlT1NNe1_vXlTyFPO5QWE2UMqgKKu7rzBrnQ970TILTsVvix/s1600-h/veranda15%5B1%5D.jpg"><img alt="Garden Pathway" border="0" height="327" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUrIons-FM8Fc9WUvqTByJ8wyhgu0ufTbYDv8LrNwKB3jYc1-loVLCEwthkQrWICNSAwA_Wdmd3SWWhLKQ3c18e7iP9CFU5OdoS82h5ecDqK1_Yn9wIpEk4R8Ryq9FYSbHbPjht8CMT6Fv/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" width="370" /></a>     <br /><font size="1">Garden Pathway</font>     <br /><em><strong>Still there are moments when the shadows fall And the low sea of flowers, wave on wave,        <br />spreads to the pathway from the rosy wall Saying in coloured silence,         <br />"Take our all; You gave to us, and back to you we gave. </strong><span style="font-size: 78%"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Garden-Vita-Sackville-West/dp/0711223580/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1245179793&sr=1-1#reader" target="_blank">Vita Sackville-West</a></span></em> </p>  <p align="justify">This beautiful arbor (above)is supported by a brick wall.

In April 1930 Vita Sackville-West and her son, Nigel, were looking for an old house where she could make a new garden. Vita fell in love with Sissinghurst Castle and bought it, along with 400 acres of farmland. She spent the next 30 years planting and designing the layout of the garden using the walls & buildings already in place. She was also the first to plant an "<em>all-white garden</em>" because she wanted the color of the flowers and foliage to act as an illuminating factor to prolong the daylight hours and hence to be able to extend the time she could spend in the garden. I spent a delightful summer, several years ago, reading her book: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Garden-Vita-Sackville-West/dp/0711223580/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1245179793&sr=1-1#reader" target="_blank">Garden</a>.

<p><span style="color:#595959;">Why is well designed outdoor furniture so hard to come by?????????  Everywhere I look I am visually assaulted by poorly designed and equally stinky, (as in smell) off-gassing furniture manufactured in China.  I have through diligent searching found some truly amazing, beautiful to look at, and environmentally friendly outdoor furniture that is not manufactured in China.
