This lovely lady begins the season with a sweet peachy color that is irresistible!

You might remember this beautiful Crimson Queen was heavily damaged in the storms of April 2011. 

She has come back strong!

For those who aren't quite sure where to place a Japanese Maple in the yard, planting them in a container is always and option.

And a really artful option to boot!!

This blazing Pixie is stunning next to the Wisteria on the arbor!

These Cedar Waxwings know a great plant when they see one and the berries of this American Holly are very attractive to them, as well as the new "chick" on the block...

...Meet Candacie Loudacie a beautiful work of art made by Jane Word, LaRue's sister-in-law. Candy spends her day soaring over the beauty below, here at John's Native Gardens.
