I live about as far away from Florida as I can get, WA, but I enjoy reading your writing. The photos are beautiful and you really have covered a lot of area here!

Dear Jerri:

Thank you for the kind words...

Gardening is such a part of my soul that I cannot go by plants without touching, smelling or diagnosing their woes. I think of my childhood visits to Scotland and the wonderful memories of the small garden plots of vegetables and flower beds in the front. So that is why in Florida I don't have a tropical garden but a cottage garden in my front yard, it makes me happy to come home and walk through at the end of the day.

Our country is such a melting garden pot of nationalities and cultures that they must miss the familiar smells and sights of their homeland. Even if they are second, third, or fourth generation, everyone should know where they come from. Wouldn't it be nice to have one big lovely global garden?

Go raibh maith agat, Georgene. I'm in the mood to look for my passport now but will probably have to settle for looking through plant catalogs to find more plants!

Thank you Jerri! So many gardens, not enough suitcases to bring plants home from the native plant nurseries!
