I had some free time today and decided I would use some of it ti visit blogs. <br /><br />Your garden is always a Joy to visit because I learn something new from it when I visit. I did some research on your Sarcococca ruscifolia also called Sweet box and learned that it's an evergreen that also bears red or black fruit. I have got to find out if it is grown in the south because I will certanily but it on my future garden list.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.Vetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15904220037223028054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-38332917203321602232011-11-22T02:52:14.101-08:002011-11-22T02:52:14.101-08:00Think your home gardens always look good/great.

I especially love the first picture of the container with the roses still blooming in the background and the window boxes with the violas. In my garden there are also not that many blooms to see anymore and I miss them, too, so I went to the nursery today and got some pansies to help me out a bit!
