I've been working on some new garden sculpture designs, sticking to my current focus of mixing wooden cubes with metal rods.
Well, it has taken a little while, but the "cube" series of garden sculptures that I've been working on are finally available...
I realized something this morning when looking out the bedroom window over the garden.
I visited my mother in Chicago again this weekend and brought her some more plants for her garden. The surprise though was that I came home with something for my garden. An old, rusty, wonderful fire hydrant!
Yesterday morning after a great breakfast in downtown St. Louis my wife and I drove past Citygarden. Sitting at the stoplight with the highway onramp visible directly in front of us, we decided that a stroll around a garden that neither of us had set foot in before would be a good thing.
Today I continue my series on St. Louis area nursery visits, with a look at a place that is unlike any other around here: Zick's Great Outdoors. This was only my second visit ever to Zick's with the first being at least five years ago. I'm not sure how we ever found this place back then, but I think it was from an interesting and creative ad in a local paper.
Yesterday I looked at the Fuller half of this neighboring garden pair -- today I'll look at the Ernst half. If you remember, I left off last post at the door separating the two back yards.
Sunday on last month's Garden Bloggers Fling in Portland started with a visit to two neighboring gardens that actually connect -- each garden has its own personality, but each spills into the other a bit. These are the gardens of friends and neighbors Joanne Fuller and Linda Ernst.
