A change for the season in color and style. Soon, the formal lines of winter will return to my little flagstone terrace. And the terra cotta pot will return.

Pics taken last week in my garden. Yes, garden cat Torte De Shelle following me. It was hard to prune the walking path, wanting to keep it solid meadow. Ha, I had to get thru !!! Reality intruded. Plans for the fruit orchard are percolating. Trees will probably come from the big box hardware store & boxwoods from a wholesaler. If this sounds formal, it is. Love a good meadow, cottage garden AND formal lines too.

I think something so anti-design as a cottage garden must have some beautiful, patterned bones to hold it up during winter and summer dormancy.
I don't think even uber-mild San Diego can pull off all cottage garden all year.
I love it when a little space is created that looks like it's out in the middle of nowhere. When it's right in the city. Takes creativity!

Don't you just love being the smartest person in the arena?

ps. answer to San Diego up there! Oh yes! isn't it the same climate as santa Barbara?
(you have called me "Russell Page".it has not gone to my head! I am reading the book "Education of a Gardener) !! I haven't come to the part about the water. I have to start at the beginning...... what wonderful book! Thank you!!!
I have also bought all of your books.....will read in entirety...it is scary how much we are all about hints. That are totally counter-intuitive! I have some missions.....more later!
hint...abolishing lawns!!???) Let's start with that!
