CREATING A LIFE FORCE

TRACTOR CHICK's landscape is being installed. Double sided fireplace, bluestone terrace, gravel terraces, arbors, ponds, rill, outdoor kitchen, garden rooms, focal points, paths, allee's, orchard, compost pile, potting table with nursery area, tiny lawn to legally please the homeowners association. Hardscape is mostly installed. Plants aren't on site yet.

Yet it's already there. A new LIFE FORCE. Risking being, The-Fruit-Loop-Garden-Designer I called TRACTOR CHICK last night & said, "I feel the Life Force of your garden."

Guess what? She feels it too!!!!!!!!!

Normally, it takes longer for a garden to share its Life Force. Sadly, many landscapes never have a Life Force. If yours doesn't, once you ask, "Why?", you're on your way to having it.

PUPPET BARBUDA will not let anyone use the I-don't-have-the-money excuse. One bush, one tree, done correctly will create a Life Force. We've all been in check-book gardens, yuck.

What do landscapes with a Life Force feel like? Grace. An energy calming & inspiring; an energy making sense of anything life throws at you. Beauty, enriching & sublime filling the senses, feeding your inner muse.

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

When a design made in the imagination starts coming to fruition,there is definitely a 'life force' evolving.
What a power surge!!
