Every garden-maker should be an artist along his own lines. That is the only possible way to create a garden, irrespective of size or wealth.

Photo Friday: Winter Wonderland


I'm taking a break from my spring reminiscence to take a moment to appreciate the beauty that is winter. Certainly one of the most gorgeous winter sights is when trees and plants are covered in frost. I guess we all know where the idea for flocked Christmas trees came from!  I think days like this also highlight how important it is to vary shape and texture in the garden for winter interest. They might not look like much most days in the winter, but on days like this? Yeah, you'll be glad you took the time to think about it when planning your garden.
