Each year I choose a different color theme for the front yard. This year was Orange, Violet and Chartruese. I love color!

I love teaching too! I'm in process of buying a nursery and adding a school for gardening. I'm SO excited. Posted: 1:34 am on January 1st
Arcadia1 writes: Thank you so much blondeartist! That's exactly what it is! After seeing your garden photos, it figures that you would come up with the name! Posted: 1:30 am on January 1st

year_round_gardener writes: Beautiful front garden! I was interested in your teaching activities. I also teach many adult gardening classes in Asheville, NC. For me, it is so much fun to get others as excited about gardening as I am.

Arcadia1 writes: Those are an apparently rare form of Arborvitae that stay very narrow and will eventually be about 9ft. if let go. I wish I could remember the name! If I do I'll post it. It's the last name of the person who developed the particular variety. Now it's going to drive me crazy trying to remember!
They just went in this last Spring from a 3G container.
