A fun slice of culvert to plant tender things in. This year I’ll remember to bring them in before the first freeze.

Orbs of all sorts around here.

Hydrangea quercifolia ‘Ice Crystal’, Berberis thunbergii ‘Orange Rocket’, Geranium ‘Johnson’s Blue'

The end of the road with a beautiful borrowed view beyond.

My favorite pot in front of new privacy panels, being consumed by yarrow and salvia


Garden art inherited from my mom, who loved big birds. A Fatshedera is just starting to grow up through it.

This bed is across the driveway from the privacy panels. My neighbor and I share this space.

Hebe ‘Quicksilver’ and an unknown sedum.

View from the front step. As you see, I love the hot reds and oranges, cooled with a little purple, gold, and gray. This is pretty much the entirety of the front “yard.” Almost all this is new, including the privacy panels. The larger conifers in back were here, of course, and must be kept at roof height to protect the view.
