I for one am inspired by her designs. Using simple everyday materials from the garden, mixed with commercially-grown flowers is what I love to do. Even better if I can grow all the materials myself. I am working n plans for my spring and summer cutting garden, and I really want to step it up and grow more. I have the seeds, just need to get the ground prepped. Christmas vacation here I come, I have a day or two I have requested the assistance of my dear husband for this project. It will be a great start to a great garden.
