The Kingwood Garden Club is proud to select the lovely yard of Barney and Cecily Ryan as the April Yard-of-the-Month.

The lovely garden is located in the Kings Crossing subdivision at 2818 N. Strathford Lane. Cecily shared, Since reorganizing my front garden last year, Ive taken a new position on gardening use annuals for lots of color and use perennials as filler. Trial and error has directed me many times, and now I stay with what works.

Her landscape combines hardscapes with the softscapes. The rock bordered beds are flanked with dusty miller and planted with pots in the beds containing tightly packed annuals (impatiens), bulbs, nerines, amaryllis, anemones, gardenias, variegated flax, camellias and blooming trees (bottlebrush). She has also added individual pots and hanging baskets shadowed by ironwork fixtures. Cecily shared, Gardening is social for me, as I meet all my neighbors who stop and chat. Finally, at the end of my day, my daily meditation consists of dead heading a wonderful way of winding down. Go by, take a stroll and see her lovely meditation garden its simple and social.
