NWFGS: Kids Garden
Day three has come to an end and we continue to have a great response to our garden. Today, my grand kids came up and, after we visited some of the walk through gardens, we headed over to the kid's garden area. Now, yesterday I was not totally excited about my...
NWFGS: Tweet up!
Today we started at 7:30am with the Garden Show Tweet Up! I'm not entirely sure how one signs up for the Tweet Up or what the criteria was for coming but there was quite a diverse group of people to chat with. You might be wondering what a Tweet Up is and...
NWFGS: Opening Day
The garden show is officially open! Not that you'd know it... Today was a big day for Seattle as we welcomed home our beloved Seahawks. With 700,000 people packing the streets of downtown Seattle the show felt a little empty. The show opened at 9am and the parade...

Plantswoman Design Home Tour
Here's the thing... It's not like I'm not busy or anything but when an opportunity presents itself you just have to take it and list your house for sale. I know, I know, it could be better timing but there you have it. I've listed my house and have my eye on...
NWFGS: Prep Day 1
Well, today is finished and we've gotten a good start. Our timeline is a bit short this year because we will be taking some time off tomorrow for the big game so we are trying to fit as much in as we can each day. Early today the show floor was strangely calm and...
Plants in a brown paper wrapper
I have an obsession with plants. Just like a wino on a street corner with a brown paper wrapper around his obsession I wait at the mail box for mine. Dreaming of the fabulous plants, wondering if I could try something new, and finally clicking 'ORDER"... I am...
HHT: Garden Rooms, Invasives and Evil Gardeners
What, you may ask, does HHT stand for? Well, Horticultural Hot Topics of course! As I head into the new year I often review the past year and think about goals for the coming year. What have I accomplished, what do I need to do, what do I want to do and what do I...
