| My interpretation of a tiny mountain glade |
 |
| Or perhaps a rock strewn scree in miniature |
 |
| If they were to last only a season, a lewisia would be worth the investment as a photographic subject if nothing else |
 |
| These are small plants that need a proper position with shoulder room that they might be fully appreciated |
 |
| Succulent gardens that are self sustaining miniature garden rooms |
 |
| Rock and conifer melded together by fallen snow... in my mind's eye... 'the Alps'? |
 |
| Afterall... a garden is where our fantasies can become our realities... at least for awhile |
 |
| Contrast is the material of a gardener's designs and and imagination is the force behind them |
 |
| Color is a fundamental essence of the joy found in a gardening place |
 |
| The very names of the plants installed add to the sensibilities of the garden... as in 'Endless Summer' |
 |
| Or a revered family member passed on as in this 'Cora Louise' |
 |
| Paths... |
 |
| And walls... |
 |
| And fences... building blocks upon which the tale is told |
 |
| Structures that evoke a time or place as in my interpretation of a half timbered medieval structure adorned with flower boxes... I did say 'use the imagination!' |
 |
| The proverbial 'bones' that give each garden room its distinct identity... a place where multiple personalities are not a disorder |
 |
| And the never-ending argument... when is something in good taste or poor taste... |
 |
| I suspect to be truly at peace in one's own garden space... the concept has to be what makes a particular gardener particularly happy... and as often as not, it's the oddities from whence invention may arise. I wonder... will you ever get to the place where you say... the garden is complete... finished... just as I want it to be for the remainder of my days? I'd like to hear your thoughts on this... for me that point will probably never come unless I simply cannot physically create or cause the garden to evolve any further... All for now, Larry |
