Winter Cloches


I love it when Mary has a cloche party.  I enjoy viewing all the creative posts.
This cloche was inspired from Pinterest. Mine didn't look as good as their's. It always looks so easy! 

Winter camellias from my garden.

I made this pic at Monticello. It was exciting to me to see cloches used in a real garden. My experience has only been seeing them in books until last fall. You can see a little of the beautiful fall foliage in the background. I want to go back in the early summer and see the garden in its prime.


This cloche was in the town of Williamsburg at a small nursery.



Notice the bell cloche at the end of the row! All of the cloches were pricey especially the green ones!!!!!
You can see another post I did on outdoor cloches here.

Linking to Table Top Tuesday, and  Wow Us Wednesday.

  3. Beautiful, I have never seen outdoor cloches like these, especially interesting is the green one and the ones of clay. So glad you shared these so we can see cloches in the outdoors. Now I am going over to your other post on cloches that you have linked.

  8. I had no clue that these were used outdoors in gardens! I just thought they were used for cultivating indoors. I need to get in touch with my farm girl roots!!! :-)

  13. I love the simplicity of a few springs of evergreen and pine cones in a cloche!! And not living where there are Camellias I had no idea there were red ones or even stripped ones. Wow!
    Congratulations on being featured.
    Blessings!
