This laptop is disappointing! I cannot load the pictures of the past 3 days for some reason, but they are on my Facebook page..Friend request, and you’ll see the finest gardens in Dallas…The tour started with a walk through Hobbit House, then on to Green Garden, Pump House Garden, and Highland Park.
The morning was highlighted by beautiful pots, water features, and a distinct focus on comfortable outdoor living. Large pots packed with tropicals, bright annuals and lush foliage were a repeating theme today. Another recurrent theme was water- bird baths, copper rain chains, and stone water “scapes”. The last obvious trend was outdoor living areas graced with comfortable furnishings, cushions, and simple decorations. Fireplaces, caves(yes!) and screened porches were dressed up, yet inviting.
There was no question that maintenance of these illustrious properties is no issue. One driveway parking space was labelled “Manager”, giving me the impression of a hired professional. One bus mate concluded that if you can live in Highland Park(w/it’s own police, fire, and post!), maintenance is no issue…

Blessings from the Garden!
