I too am sensitive to too many tchotchkes in the landsscape. Indeed, my garden is still suffering from "Projectland" overload having built and shot everything here. This summer I hope to renovate and simplify. I'm thinking more gabion walls and fences and a couple giant earthen mounds planted in ornamental grasses. Thanks for such a thoughtful review!<br />LoreneLorene Edwards Forknerhttp://plantedathome.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-23052314079443130862012-05-05T19:20:56.925-07:002012-05-05T19:20:56.925-07:00I think I just found my next Amazon purchase.
