• Re: Plants That Worked This Summer

  Had to check this out when I saw that it was your garden, Cherry. Everything looks so lush despite the dry summer. Amazing what a little fall rain will do. Of course, Broccoli is your biggest garden asset.

  Anna, the Blue Ridge mountains were the destination of many spring vacations when our children were young. You work in an amazing place and thank you for the work that you do there.

• Re: Creating a New Daylily Bed

  Nanci, this was so informative. My husband and I generally create a new bed and then landscape by adding plants as we find something that strikes our fancy. This planned out bed is such a better way of doing things. I hope the fires have stayed far from your home.

• Re: Episode 30: Gardening Wish List for 2019

  These podcasts keep me entertained while I’m working in my garden so I hope you continue them. To Steve, you mentioned two of our favorite trees but I would say that the Serviceberry has better form than the Fringetree and more year round interest.

  Thank you for posting this, Lori. Since we live in WA, I see a summer road trip in our future. Your combinations are indeed electric and pleasing to the eyes.

• Re: Garden Perfection, 40+ Years in the Making: Part 1

  Elaine, having almost the same amount of property, I understand that after 40+ years you would need to move but there is no doubt in my mind how bittersweet that will be. You’ve done a magnificent job. Love all of your artwork and your metal spderweb. Anxious to see more.
