Cultivating a Culture of Gardening™
Gardening friends and black thumb die-hards, welcome to a blog devoted to helping you "be wise gardening" - finding the fun in gardening fundamentals to help you be successful in your gardening endeavors. I'll be gearing this more for the Tennessee/southern gardens but read on anyway because I'm a hopeless plant addict and love to talk about new plants and new gardening products.

"Gardening is not some sort of game by which one proves his superiority over others, nor is it a marketplace for the display of elegant things that others cannot afford. It is, on the contrary, a growing work of creation, endless in its changing elements. It is not a monument or an achievement, but a sort of traveling, a kind of pilgrimage you might say, often a bit grubby and sweaty though true pilgrims do not mind that. A garden is not a picture, but a language, which is of course the major art of life." Henry Mitchell "The Essential Earthman" I work as the Floriculture Director for Landscape Services, Inc. My job includes designing and planting semi-annually hundreds of annual beds containers and garden beds for commercial development, neighborhoods, and residents requesting our horticulture services. I love my job and the opportunity to bring beauty to our local communities. Most of all, I love introducing new plant material to the average gardener, and to helping them find success in their own gardens.

Barbara, I LOVE your blog. What great and practical advice! I remember from Auburn days what a great photographer you were. It has paid off-and what beautiful plants you have to photograph. I'll be a regular reader! Karen
