A Tribute

...for a lawn littered with the chocolate and cream blooms of Magnolia 'Woodsman'
...for coming home on a dark, cold winter day and being pulled into the side yard by the scent of a Hamamelis in full bloom
...for the incredible brightness of a double bloodroot pushing out of leaf litter when I was all out of energy at the end of a long day
...for the bright blue blooms on Mary's special Nigella weaving through a fuzzy Salvia argentea
...for standing under a Cercis alba in a May wind and being reminded of a snowstorm
...for watching the morning sun glint through the golden leaves of a Rohani Beech (it really was a gold one!)
...for the delicate blossoms on a patch of rue anemone at the edge of a woodland
...for a Cercis 'Silver Cloud' that hides my secret garden from the neighbors' yard, so I can enjoy a glass of wine, a good book and my fountain in peace at the end of a long day
...for the serrated leaves of a Corsican hellebore winking at me as I run to the car late for work after spending too much time looking at the awakening garden on an early spring morning
...for the stately elegance of a Cercidiphyllum pendula keeping watch over the back gardens
...for being able to look out the window when doing endless sinks full of dishes and seeing a Cercis 'Hearts of Gold' entwined with the majestic purple of a Jackmanii clematis
....for the best biscotti I ever ate
...for sharing your endless wisdom, love of plants, good humor, and a hug!

There is so much Mary's Plant Farm in my garden--thank you both!

We are not responsible to replace plants that have failed due to conditions beyond our control such as possible neglect, weather, growing conditions or the lack of experience on the part of the gardener.
