Garden Triumphs

From New Starts to Pure Surprises - Your Gardens

By , About.com Guide

Every true garden is personal. And let's face it, every garden is a surprise. We can hope and plan and work, but in the end, gardening is a game of chance. It's part of the joy of gardening and the gardeners who sent in the photos showcased here have every reason to be proud of triumphing in this game of chance.

I asked readers to send in photos of their gardening triumphs. As you take a look at the various gardens on display, you'll probably see a few that look like yours, a few you felt superior to and, hopefully, some inspiration. Isn't that a great thing about gardening? No matter how experienced you are, you can still appreciate all the effort and faith another gardener puts into their creation.

I hope you enjoy this photo tour of your fellow gardeners' triumphs. If you have photos you'd like to share with us, please email them to me in jpeg form.
