A beautiful alley or court yard -- important to have a variety of plants...nice dappled sunlight and small table to sit at -- when my grand mother was alive -- she planted every where she could in the city. A habit I see from the 'old' county
I love their gardens. I love their garden enough to even be envious or lustful. But the only way I would have such a garden is if I could have somebody who loved them more than me who would volunteer to come here and take care of the many pots and plants. That is my kind of potted garden. Otherwise, I like Natures many varied gardens best and that's what I have.
Looks like a tight squeeze up those stairs. But who cares. There's something so satisfying about cultivating plants either for food or adornment. Do you think the desire to do this is rooted in our DNA? Lovely, evocative photo.
Sometimes they look better than real garden that nobody cares about. It looks like a rock garden ! I love these little gardens at the corner of a street.
Love everything about this.. Loking past the obvious...I like the wheel barrow..mail box .. shadows .. sun .. something written above the door on the right?? really cool photo, jilly.
That is so inviting. I just want to sit there - at that little table - and unwind. Everything everyone above said is spot on: A perfectly composed photo, taken by someone with an eye and a talent for such things.
superbe ce petit jardin, très belle lumiere qui tombe dedans

Beautiful! The textures of the courtyard with the pots and plants is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWonderful, Jilly. So abundant with life!
ReplyDeleteLove the arch. Perhaps I should do the same thing re. plants in my own small yard. Never had a green thumb but it's not too late to learn.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot. Comfortable view.

ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how some people can do so much with so little.
ReplyDeleteThis makes a beautiful little corner. I wonder if there are herbs growing here.

ReplyDeleteSo much character!
ReplyDeleteThat's so true, all you is a little imagination.

Absolutely awesome spot! Great find, Jilly!
ReplyDeleteThere is just enough space on those stairs for me to sit down and enjoy a wonderful scenery
