Living Walls

Living Walls are a wonderful way to bring your garden indoors. When I saw the first picture of a living wall that was all succulents, I knew this was the direction I wanted to go not only with my gardening, but as my next and last business.See More

My Pond

Here is a pic of my pond taken in August maybe. I love it, the sound is so peaceful and the birds do too. We had a garter snake take up residency in the deepest part of the pond.

BEAUTIFUL FALL DAY IN SAN FRANCISCO

Posted on November 1, 2011 at 1:40pm 0 Comments

Today is a beautiful day here in San Francisco...yes, I'm here for 6 weeks to take care of my 88-year-old aunt; the weather is so beautiful I think I'll get on my bicycle and go for a ride. It's a tuff job, but somebody's gotta do it!  I wish I could attach some pics of my Auntie's garden, but my camera went kaput the other day; I don't know why, so I have nothing to attach, Sorry! I'm new to this site, so I just wanted to say hello to all of you fellow gardeners!

Hi Terry,  Thanks for the information on the pond.  You asked if I'm going to build one~  Yes!, if my husband doesn't buy a home on a lake, then I'm building ponds!  LOL.  Tuff way to go fishing huh?  (Just kidding)  I think you do stellar work and I'm very critical in my opinion.  Did you follow a plan or book design?

Thanks for your help and I'll be checking your blog for features.

Terry,

Rain gardens are depressions in the soil used as a termination point for downspouts and runoff.  Here in Western Washington they are being used more and more to handle the large amounts of runoff from our landscapes rather than direct the water into the storm water system.  The garden is planted with vegetation that thrives in wet to dry and back environment.  The water then can percolate through the soil and get clean before it ends up in our rivers and lakes.  The county and city are encouraging the use of them.

Thanks so very much for sharing the 'creation process' of your lovely pond as well as the final BEAUTIFUL photo of it last August! You have inspired me and now I will officially declare I want one too!!!

Thanks Terry, hey I have a huge pile of broken concrete in my backyard, you can have some!  Yes, it is fun to reuse it, more and more people are doing that.  It's hard to hawl away so makes sense to try and do something with it.
