When I moved into my house the front yard was filled with bricks and dog shit and the backyard was a newly planted lawn. I stepped up my game on this one – using lots of passalong plants that came to me like manna from heaven and little by little the landscaping that I couldn’t figure out began to take shape. It is much like everything else – you just start and see where it will go – all life is organic. My grandmother was someone to just stick something in the ground or a pot and see what happens and from that came her magical garden. I was blessed with some of her genes even though I think my Aunt Sue got most of them. <\/p>\n
