While walking in the yard, I realized that no matter where I lived, I have always had a garden. My gardens have ranged from plants on a window sill to a 3/4 acre plot with several flower beds. My best garden was a vegetable garden I had a few years back that gave us tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and squash all summer long. My worst was when I attempted to plant a couple flower pots for my city yard. I couldn't understand why the plants kept dying until I realized that what I though were pebbles to put at the bottom of the pot for drainage were actually pebbles of rock salt!
This year, I am grateful to have several flower gardens. My favorite is the little bed just outside my studio door.
My gardens are arranged with items and flowers that hopefully give the viewer an opportunity to experience a pleasant memory or emotion. This garden is rather whimsical!
