  • Gardens are as much in your head as they are all around you. Don’t ever let someone take from you that feeling that makes them special and perfect.

    I work for a company that publishes three small local weekly newspapers and write a garden column for Green Thumbs that appears in all three every few weeks. I try to present information only from my perspective: how things work FOR ME, what grows well FOR ME, how I might do things…. and you the reader can take it from there. My way is certainly not the only way to garden, nor is it necessarily the right way. So I wholeheartedly agree with this post–your garden is your own; do what you like with it and ENJOY it!!

    Hi Meleah,thank you for this post. I’m in New Jersey-imagine hostas all over the state.Mostly planted in sunny areas and badly scorched.Where is any imagination?Not to mention a bit of knowledge.And everything is mulched!!!!! The Garden State looks rather like Carpenter Shop State.Do gardeners in Minnesota overmulch everything too?Thanks again D.

      Hi Dorota,
      Thanks for your note. Mulch is a personal thing and I know many gardeners who use a lot of mulch and plenty who just hate it. I’m sort of in between. We’re also the hostas-all-over-the-place state! 🙂
