A Garden’s Distinctive Voice

An unknown author once said “It's beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures your heart.” How true about each garden created; the owner’s distinctive voice comes through in its chosen colors, textures and style.

So as you meander through your garden this weekend, look for those underlying characteristics that give your landscape its own personality. Think long and hard while starting the fall clean-up or the last minute transplants. What makes you stop in your tracks? What draws you in? First, it may be the beauty of a blossom. Yet if you ponder long enough, discovering what ties it all together is what gives that simple blossom its persona.

Successful design is not one-dimensional. It has layers of personality, not just beauty. Take this weekend to connect with your garden’s distinctive voice. Let me know what you discover in your exploration.
