Seasons of My Gardens
Most of my customers have no idea that I regard their gardens as my gardens. Their gardens become like my children. Are they ill? Are they get enough sun light? Have the Aphids dissappeared? After 9 years, I have many children. I create them from nothing, and I believe that being a woman comes with a feeling of creation as part of my calling. You have no idea how lucky I feel that I have figured out and actively live my dreams. When you find your calling and have that big huge question of "what am I going to be when I grow up?" all tucked away, it makes everything else secondary. Boyfriends can come and go and the world changes around me, but the one thing that reamains true is my love for gardening. That never fails. I will never stop feeling completely mesmerized by the deepest center of any flower, or swinging in my hammock listening to forest sounds with my eyes closed. On this very deep and philosophical note I am going to leave you with some of my favorite photographs of the summer of 2007.

Marilee hanging out in the dumpster
The construction crew building a waterfall
Bringing in some huge rocks
Things were getting a little over grown back here
Natalie planting in a tiny front garden
A lovely specimen of Cersis Canadensis
Those adorable bunnies in North York
Monarch on a Liatris blossom near the Distillery district
Emma and Alex posing in the tall grasses
Just a random magenta exploding garden in Orillia
Richard in his garden.
The fountain almost completed, beer in hand
Boxwoods, Gold Standard hostas, Chelone, Golden Mock orange
a weeping purple fountain Beech, and Virginia creeper creeping over the fence
There are 4,000 other photos that I could include, but that is just a taste of what we have been up to.
What have you been up to in your garden?
