My blog needs a vacation; one longer that I’ve ever had personally, but a well deserved one. After 5 years of regular postings, Gardening With Confidence blog will rest while I finish my book, 50 Ways to Garden With Confidence. I will continue with my other blog commitments, Moss and Stone Gardens – Where Moss Rocks!, Christian Science Monitor, Better Homes and Gardens, Martha Stewart Living and TarHeel Gardening when that starts back up, but my personal blog will rest.
Once the final manuscript is turned in, I can resume my Life of Raleigh, where I garden with confidence. It’s my hope my book will help others garden with confidence, as well.
Excerpt from Gardening With Confidence™
There are just some gardens that when I enter, it feels like I’m in the middle of the pit of a well orchestrated symphony, with each instrument — a flower, a shrub, a tree, an accent — insignificant on it’s own, but lyrical within the arrangement.
These gardens aren’t monied, necessarily. But they are exact, with each addition carefully considered. The rhythm, the scale, the color echo, work well together. Nothing dominates or stands out to upstage each important player. It’s the garden as a whole that must be considered for it to sing.
Thanks for understanding.
