” Who knows just how creative and eco-friendly you can be? You’re only limited by your imagination–and ambition… I am not saying we must all run out to the salvage yards, scooping up bits and pieces to save them from the landfill. Oh heck, yes I am! Some of the most creative uses of garden art were rescues from such places.” Joe Lamp’l , The Green Gardener’s guide.

One thing my mom always says…creating a display garden at the Northwest Flower and Garden show is easier when you build as much as you can ahead of time. It is starting to become like a big puzzle. We build, dismantle and then put the pieces back together at the show. Build day today just before the rain set in.

Count down to building in the convention center…7 days!!!
I can’t wait to see what you and your Mom have dreamed up Courtney!
I saw your garden design yesterday at the show – congrats on such a lovely design!
Thank you Lorraine for your comments! It is so fun to see this garden finally in 3-D, all that planning on paper and pre-building really worked well.
