I search out gardens that could not
exist in any other place than where
they are. I look for gardens that
reflect the gardener's passion,
gardens with historical tales to tell,
gardens with a bit of wacky
embedded in their beauty.
Why? Because I'm a gardener. When I'm not traveling the world,
I spend my free time pulling weeds and moving plants around in
my own backyard in Northern California's Sonoma County.
I understand gardens, and I dearly love them. This site, along with my regular column for International Travel News, "The Garden Path," gives me an opportunity to share my finds with you.
With a click you'll read about an Alice in Wonderland-like garden in Boquete, a garden dedicated to an ancient shipwreck in Stockholm, a poison garden in England -and many more.
And yet, I know the world holds uncounted wondrous gardens. Stay tuned- as I discover them, you'll find them here.
