    Welcome Home, Boxwood

    My last two posts about this project might make you suspect that my primary interest in this landscape has to do with hard structures. Not so.

    Hydrangea Time

    I am somewhat embarrassed about how many posts I have devoted to hydrangeas over the past 8 years. Probably too many.

    Some Thoughts On Places and Spaces

    What are we looking at here? Lacking any recognizable objects or context, it is tough to tell. As this is not a quiz, I will identify it. A 10 foot tall concrete block wall behind Detroit Garden Works, covered with the skeletal branches of Boston Ivy, has a hat of windswept snow. Behind and...
