I have always wanted to have the time to create my own 'space' online, but never seemed to have that time. However when my garden was on the Region 2 Summer Tour this year and there was so very little in bloom on tour day, I felt that I had to bite the bullet and bring images of my garden to you.

I have quite a number of cultivars that are on the Garden Judge Awards and Honors Ballot, some of whom you may not have seen.

I also especially want to thank and showcase my Guests from so many talented hybridizers. They really did strut their stuff this year and I have added my own comments in order for you to become more familiar with them. One picture on a hybridizer's website just can not do them justice, nor do I expect my images to do them justice, just "toot their horns" a bit.:)

Much time and effort went into taking these images, so please do not use them for commercial purposes without my permission. Anyone is welcome to download them for their own personal use. Thank you.

Enjoy!
