Create Nourishing Flourishing Home Utopias
Highlands Country Club in Highlands NC hosts a number of croquet tournaments in the summer..in fact, it is a spectacular success! We designed the new practice court to the right and sited the pavilion. This winter stone walls were added to provide places to perch…over 225 people might show up for a match and there is limited space!
Lectures to garden clubs are some of my favorite venues! Today, it is the Carolina Foothills GC, a member of Garden Club of America located in Greenville, SC. I love this group. It made the Reedy River project come together thru their active community work and it was awarded many prizes including best by America Society of Landscape Architects. I’m both a GCA member and in ASLA, so very proud of them. We’ll be talking about Lifelong Landscape Design tomorrow, how does it work , what do you do to plan WAYYYY ahead for your lifelong home. You are probably already in it if you are aged 61. Many valuable tips from organization of parts, access, easy gardening, plants and healing garden design.

Birthing this baby is in full force today. Much after a trial run at the GA Home Show, but one ton of grit was a bear of a challenge to unload into a swirling dervish of a marketplace! The Southeastern Flower Show opens tomorrow (Thurs, Feb 4 – Sat at 8pm) and is located at the Cobb Galleria in Atlanta.
Hugh and I will have book signings at Eagle Eye and and autographed books are also available at our beautiful display. Scilla, hyacinths ‘Delft Blue, Pink Pearl & Top Hit’, muscari, dutch iris, tulip ‘Flair’ and more were forced in our mountain retreat specially for this event.
