Garden Arches

I can guess that in the mind's eye of every gardener there is the image of what should be incorporated into a garden in order to achieve perfection. For some its creating perfect garden beds, to others it could be gathering a collection of as many variety of palms(enter your own favorite plant here)as possible. Occasionally in my post I will allow little glimpses of what I think will create a winning garden. As I have said before, a girl can dream can't she.

I am not sure why I like this, there is something unique and still familiar about it.
A classic beauty
Nature's best
This one is just cheeky and fun
Ahhh, a quiet and secluded spot

This one has a very Zen and contempory look about it
Hmmm, it seems that I have a thing for frogs
This one is from one of my favorite furniture websites, Horchow.com. A girl can dream, can't she!?!
Lovely stream
The garden pond of my dreams

I especially like the look of the foliage cascading down the sides


Another classic style

This is the inspiration for this post. I saw it on TOG of Coral Gardens Daily Blog.
