🍂🌼 October Yard of the Month – Julie & Mike Ball! 🌼🍂
Ironton In Bloom is excited to recognize Julie and Mike Ball as our October Yard of the Month winners! 🏡🍁
For the past 26 years, Julie and Mike have transformed their property into something truly beautiful! What started with just three overgrown bushes has grown into a yard filled with gorgeous flowers, colorful perennials, trees, and thoughtfully designed garden beds.
Their front yard has been absolutely stunning this season, with flowers that have flourished from spring into fall. But as beautiful as the front is, the real hidden gem is their backyard! 🌿
Tucked away behind their home is a peaceful little oasis, complete with beautiful landscaping, a rock-lined water feature and waterfall, and cozy seating areas where they can relax and enjoy everything they’ve created together.
Julie shared that some of her favorite flowers are their many varieties of coneflowers, which not only bring color throughout the growing season but also provide food for birds during the winter months. 🐦🌸
And their favorite part of gardening? Simply spending time together, enjoying the peaceful space they’ve spent so many years creating. ❤️
Congratulations, Julie and Mike! Thank you for sharing your love of gardening and helping make Ironton a more beautiful place, one bloom at a time! 🌼
