More light everyday?<br /><br />Nicole, you won't regret it!<br /><br />Jane, maybe you've invented a new career for me?!<br /><br />Pam, she does! I had to go back and look at your blog because I didn't remember reading about it there!<br /><br />K&V, you would just have to be careful not to poke out an eye!<br /><br />Grace, Good eye for the plants! I'm learning about the amending. I wish we would have done it big time when we tore out our front lawn. Live and learn...<br /><br />Les, yes it was! The pictures throughout this book are just fabulous!danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-24035770952642001502010-01-12T16:19:21.941-08:002010-01-12T16:19:21.941-08:00Nice of Timber Press to let you use the photos, th...Nice of Timber Press to let you use the photos, though it will likely serve them well.

I love the photo of the candelabra yuccas in a row backed by an illuminous sun-drench. And the color play on the third photo: the 'Color Guard' yucca [I think] and the 'Yellow Wave' Phormium. [I think again]. Fabulous. Amending our clay soil is a mandate, isn't it? I've also found that six inches of fallen leaves don't sit very well on my lavenders. They look horrid. Stupid me. <br /><br />Great post!

You are tenacious and will make it work, even in rainy Portland! My thanks to Nicole for mentioning my post (not a review, but a mention that I'd bought the book); she has a good memory!Pam/Digginghttp://www.penick.net/diggingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-6691223741785388182010-01-11T16:54:03.740-08:002010-01-11T16:54:03.740-08:00Lovely spikey garden plants, and great garden desi...Lovely spikey garden plants, and great garden design images, too. How nice of Timber Press to allow you to include the scanned photos. You need to apply for mini sales commissions: I bought the Irish's book on Agaves on your recommendation - now I think I need this one, too!MulchMaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13848950758103138175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-78890601414665182992010-01-11T16:34:12.731-08:002010-01-11T16:34:12.731-08:00What fabulous photos.
