Wow! Thanks for risking life and limb.

I admire the work you do...... both on the job and in the garden. It's beautiful. I think in a couple of years your garden will be like mine......... over crowded!

Absolutely beautiful ! Love all the color combinations. And just imagine what it will look like next year and the years after. So nice and full.
Thanks for sharing,

Your garden layout is beautiful and you are a brave soul going up on the roof to take picks! I think I'll stick with taking mine out the laundry room window :-)

you remind me of myself... but with more money lol

Will, will you adopt me so I can spend time just walking around your beautiful garden? My hubby will supply the one way ticket to get there ! lol

Thanks for the comments! :) I realize that a garden of love isn't nearly as exciting unless you can share it with fellow gardeners. I'm a single guy with a modest income but my budget is pretty much jammed into my gardening efforts which have basically caused my wallet to be real light for the first two years in the hobby.

I subscribe to the 'The best time to plant a hosta(tree, etc) is twenty years ago, the next best time is today". Well, in my view this justifies 'extending oneself' a little bit to acquire the plants you want today so you can watch them grow tomorrow. I am also fanatical about hobbies: when I started 'collecting hostas', I went out and bought several hundred in a few weeks.

Almost all of my plants are what I refer to as 'legacy plants' in that they are most likely to still be growing and becoming more beautiful even after I have passed on. All the more reason to invest as much time and energy as I can while I am still relatively young.

Maybe some of you folks can visit in person some day! :)

Will, absolutely super shots of your garden. I'm not sure there are enough hours in the day to do all you did, great job!
