Pot Bound in Garden Design Magazine

Just a brief note to let everyone know about an article that has just been published in the March 2009 issue of Garden Design magazine. This is a project that features ornamental grasses being used in containers that I worked on last summer with my friend Jenny Andrews, who is the features editor at the magazine. We spent several loooonng, hot days in August working to get it all just right and I’m very proud of the way it turned out. It should be hitting newsstands and mailboxes this week. You can also see a few additional photos online at www.gardendesign.com/grasses My only complaint is that in the online version you can’t click on the photos and see larger images. I hope they’ll fix that. Just FYI, the online photos, for the most part, are different than the ones in the magazine, so be sure to look at both!

More strange weather here! 74 degrees yesterday with tornadoes in one county and it’s going to be 19 tonight! Sort of wishing I’d left those leaves in place for one more week, but what’s a gardener to do?!? Spring will get here… Spring will get here… Spring will get here…

    Well, as is typical here in Tennessee, spring officially arrived last Thursday and today it snowed! It snowed so hard, in fact, that when I was driving home around lunch time you couldn’t see from one telephone pole to the next.  Near white-out conditions!  20 minutes later, the sun came out and as quickly as…

    Can you believe it’s already August??? I keep promising to post more regularly and little things like packing hundreds of boxes and taking four truckloads of stuff (one entire truckload of nothing but plants!) to a new house keep getting in the way! The good news: It’s FINALLY done! Done! Well, almost done. I still…

  • As February Wanes

    It appears that March is going to live up to its reputation and come in like a lion. I left the house yesterday morning without a jacket, since it was 67 degrees at 8 a.m., and by 4:00 yesterday afternoon it was in the 40’s and I was wishing I hadn’t made that oversight. Apparently,…

  • New Beginnings

    I have been a bad blogger this year. I admit it. But writing two books in a year’s time and getting the travel business off the ground has taken a considerable amount of my time and has turned my attention, for most of the year, elsewhere. And so, I’m making at least one New Year’s…

  • Back On Track

    Okay, I’ve been a little remiss in posting lately. The 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. shift is beginning to wear on me just a little, so shoot me. This has been one of the craziest springs I can remember in quite some time and I’m STILL playing catch-up. Almost there, though. The work is not…

    Hey everyone! Sorry it has been a few days since there was a new post. I’ve been up to my eyeballs in the Antiques & Garden Show of Nashville for the past week. After working on the show in various capacities for nearly 15 years, I had officially “retired” and was looking forward to a…
