About this blog
Our gardens (in the piedmont of SC and the mountains of NC) are increasingly home to native plants, birds, small mammals, and insects of all sorts. My gardening companion (my husband) is equally the gardener in our gardens. Our gardening assistant, Mocha, a wonderful Golden retriever, helped us for many years. Woody, our rescue Golden, is now putting his own stamp on our gardens.
I reduce the sizes of most images, but they're still bigger than what's seen on the blog (click to enlarge!)
Text and images are my original work, except where credited elsewhere and protected by copyright.
It's a honor
