A Garden for a Daughter

If I had the back and muscles for it, and the time and the money, I'd design a flower garden for all our daughters and locate them all around our 5 acres, with a pretty name marker and a place to rest in each. Papa G brought three daughters and I brought along another three to this marriage about a decade ago.

By age, from oldest to youngest, they are;

Rhiannon
Felicity
Charlotte
Cordelia
Melissa
Alexandra

They sound like garden names! I considered what kind of garden would represent each unique style and personality, and even found some pictures that fit.

So, for those who know these young women, I invite you to try to match the garden with the girl. Anyone else can just make happy guesses!

I'll let you go first. What name would you give each garden?

Cori said...

Bah ha, I agree. 4 has such nice straight lines. mmmmmmm..... lines. And 6 is wierd, like alli. Please tell!

Shari said...

Yes, the one with the pool is Alli, of course. But yours is not the lavender garden. Somebody else is very into lavender. Hint: rocks?? Guess again!

Cari said...

Well I almost went with #5 for Cori because of the rocks, but I still think the nice straight, orderly lines of #4 is also very Cori.

5. This one has t be Cori because it has rocks!
6. This one definitely has to be Alli... i has a pool.
How'd I do???? :)

Cori said...

Ok, I agree with 5. It is very me, I was just initially overwhelmed by the straight lines.

Fishy's close to what I was thinking. I had Rhiannon and Cori switched. The first one looks like a mountain wildflower rock garden to me. And I can see Rhiannon in the tropical garden, hanging out with her iguana friends! But Fishy had the rest just like I thought! Good job girlfriend.
