After a trip to paradise, I have returned to my own gardens. It was a great opportunity and privilege to visit another part of the globe and experience other garden settings. After time away, I realize that summer is coming to a close and it’s time to plan and plant for next season. Now is the time to plant perennial flowers, trees and shrubs. The soil will remain warm long enough to allow plants to establish themselves before winter. Garden planning is made simple when you plant what works best in your area and for your soil conditions. My time exploring other gardens was educational and exhilarating. I was inspired and greatly appreciate the creativity of my fellow gardeners.
