Joan, what a great blog, filled with really interesting ideas. You know that it will only be a short while before everyone catches on to how interesting this is.
I love the idea of the lights nestled in the planter. We live on a 1st floor balcony, and although it is much more private, there are many challenges also.
Have you gone over to see Fern, at Life on a Balcony? She has a very interesting blog, and has been blogging for some time now.
Joan: It is a beautiful garden and I love the lights and the close up pics!! What joy! I can imagine how beautiful it is to enjoy a cup of coffee (or perhaps wine or even vodka??) while overlooking such beauty!! Doing the "happy beautiful flower dance" with you. Thanks for sharing!! I am no where near as creative, but I love to live creatively vicariously through you!! cheers, Marianne
Thank you, Marianne, I love your comments! You remind me that I will be doing a post on the Martini Garden soon. Ha!
Danielita, I sent an email to you about those photos, did you receive? Please email me directly. I can share photos with you but I have no idea how to email photos that are approx 4mb each. Too large for standard emails and I have no experience with zipping photos. I am considering adding a Slide Show to this blog. You can link to my site. I may even create a window-saver slide show. Either sound appealing? Please -- see my email address on the side of this blog.

Additionally, you may insert comments throughout the blog in the spaces provided for "comments". There is also a "Question and Answere" portion to this blog, located at the bottom of the blog. This is open to all. Accordingly, if I cannot answer your question, perhaps another reader will be able to do so.

Good luck, and I will be back to visit again.

Thank you, Jen, for your kind words. I just wanted to create a site for those people who have limited time available to create and maintain a garden.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, Life on the Balcony was one of my first stops! Do you think her real name is "Fern"? It's just too cute a name for a garden-lover, isn't it?
