Lovely photo essay Billy! Great comments, too. It brought back memories of my visit to Strawberry Canyon - a special place indeed.

John Greenlee is a great advocate for grasses and meadow-style gardening. It is great that he and Saxton Holt have teamed up to create this wonderful book. If I don't win the free copy, I will be standing in line at the ASLA meeting in Washington DC in December, where I see that John is one of the featured speakers. Congratulations, John. And Billy Goodnick - excellent review!

I always have some containers on my deck where I keep a few Japanese Maples or dwarf conifers - enjoy them for a year or two until they are big enough to go to the garden. I plant trailing annuals such as diascia for seasonal color and texture. I call them my "porch pets."
