On This Day

Gratefully remembering our veterans. 

Here's to a safe, happy and healthy Friday!

For any of you living within driving distance of Detroit, consider visiting Detroit Garden Works for their Holiday Open House today through November 13th. Detroit Garden Works is one of the best garden shops in the U.S., but really it is so much more. Deborah Silver, the owner, is an extremely knowledgeable professional landscape designer who opened Detroit Garden Works in 1996. 

They have the coolest things!

Wisteria Lane

Seeing a wisteria vine in full bloom is a sure reason for me to screech the car to a stop so I can admire it. Its beauty is unrivaled. I know, its strength is also, but once you understand the basics of its proper pruning, the enjoyment can be all yours.

I did stop when I drove past my neighbor's home. Wow! And the scent- it reminds me of grapes. Delicate and delicious!

A sunny Friday is in store for us today and I am the luckiest gal- I will be planting all day at several clients' homes. What are you doing on this lovely Friday?

TGIF

It's been a crazy, busy week 

and I am looking forward to relaxing a bit tonight!

I wouldn't mind plopping into this chair, 

pulling over a stool and catching up on my reading.
