Summer Daze

Butterflies get it – this whole summer thing. These beautiful creatures enjoy the best parts of the summer daze. As John Lubbock pointed out, “Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.”

Need some thoughts on where to spend the height of your summer days? Wherever you venture, enjoy being outdoors in all of its glory. And whatever you design for your landscape, remember to keep a bit of balance and harmony ; find a place to rest. Take this much needed lesson from a butterfly. These beautiful creatures seem to get this whole summer thing. 

Our philosophy when it comes to designing garden spaces:  “Let your hearts imagine what your hands can create. This is the essence of a beautiful garden.”  And don't forget to take some time to rest.
