Re: READER PHOTO! A blue gate that's irresistible to visitors

I love this so much I posted it as my desktop wallpaper. And jacquielawson.com has a screensaver widget, jack the puppy, I downloaded by conincidence. Now the garden has a puppy randomly running through it or sleeping under a bush, or chasing his tail...delightful! Jan has a masterful composition - the echo of the blue gate in the iris struck me - and I wish her signature was on my desktop somewhere.

Re: Foliage Foundations and Gnasty Gnomes (the Gs are silent)

Enjoyed the gnomes at the pub! Another relaxing message this planting offered me is that each plant had room to be itself, not pruned, not having a smack-down with branches of the plant next to it - while the whole picture is still lush and green. Thanks for this!
