My Garden

A view of my little garden. I let the foxglove "walk around". A different pleasure each year. This section was drip irrigated for three years, then 20 years without irrigation. Not a benefit to a publisher of my book Drip Irrigation for Every Landscape All Climates.

Chaos as Beauty

I came out one morning to see dozens of spider orbs gracing the former summers lavender stalks. An angelic beauty I had only seen this once because I now prune back all my lavenders. This photo never got into my book The Lavender Garden (Still for sale on web site for only $10.) It came about as I had let one section of my tight plantings, deeply-mulched garden go without any work for several years before I started to tend for it in a “natural” way. You’d never see this gorgeous photo in Martha Stewart Living!
