Plant Heaven on Earth



I was lucky enough yesterday to spend most of it outside transplanting perennials and shrubs. The cool, cloudy, misty weather was perfect. As usual, I learned much from both client and garden in suburban Chicago. Not to mention being delighted by aesthetics (this was designed by an expert LA three decades hence) and superb maintenance.



Because asparagus crop is only second year, she had to stop picking...next year, it can be picked for three or four weeks.



Rain makes Hosta look like Tinkerbell lives nearby.

And woodland below MUST be magical.

Such nice images. I especially like the hosta with the beautiful overlapping leaves. Here in Vermont, the asparagus season has just begun.

What a gorgeous garden. Love those box balls with the espaliers!
