a journal about my garden and my life: thoughts on the chaos, the glory, the surprises, the disasters, and the joys of life and my garden
...
The sun
Is blinding
Dizzy golden, dancing green
Through the
park in the afternoon
Wondering where the hell
I have been
Ah...

"I thank You God for most this amazing day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything which is natural which is infinite which is yes"
--e.e. cummings
I am a writer, artist, gardener and wounded healer with a special interest in the natural world, the re-enchantment of design, and healthy, fabulous food. My home is my garden and workshop, and I use my travels as inspiration. I enjoy stepping off the beaten path to discover the unexpected and to re-connect with the awesome power of Nature to rejuvenate my soul.

Kati, I LOVE the way you planted that container! The colors are gorgeous together, and look really nice with the house color, too.
It looks like there's a reddish brown grass behind that mound of coleus in the middle of the container--am I right? What kind of grass?
B. girl, the grass is Purple Fountain Grass, Penniseteum setaceum "Rubrum", Zone 9. Not hardy here, it could be brought indoors I suppose. I'm thinking I'll use it as an annual. In warmer climates, it does get a bit larger than my plants are, apparently up to 4'.
an afterthought: it looks like an icecream cone! (make mine a double DeathbyChocolate, please)
Nice. Words and form, together. Very nice.
Kati...
Just thought I'd let you know. If a person is viewing your site using the firefox browser...the "Just Released: Version 2006 of Derek Gehl's best-selling system"
shows up at the top right of the page covering your profile..etc., and is distracting.
Firefox is a fairly popular browser and thought you'd like to know. cheers..Mike www.allrepellents.com
