Open Days in Tioga County
June 6th, 2006 by Kathy Purdy · 2 Comments
Do you remember the specialist snowdrop catalog I mentioned way back in January? If you happen to be near Trumansburg, NY, this Saturday, you can visit his garden (and three others) thanks to the Garden Conservancy’s Open Days program. I wish I were touring all four gardens, but I’ve got way too much gardening to do right here at home. Anyone second that?

About Kathy Purdy
Kathy Purdy discovered the joys of writing in fourth grade, when she started corresponding with a former classmate. She's been writing letters ever since, first on looseleaf, then electronically, and now as weblog entries. That makes you, the blog reader, her pen pal. Her first independent (though frustrating) attempts at gardening were made in high school, though the gardening bug didn't bite hard until her mid-thirties, when she found herself mistress of a rural home on 15 acres. •

Well, it’s too hot down here to be in the garden except between 6 and 8 in the morning and perhaps 8 and 9 at night. But you missed my trip to England, then…and a write up of Hidcote Manor Garden–my highlight for May. It was cool and rainy the day we went, and I just look at those photos now and dream of damp earth and green plants.

Ooops. The position of your “comments” link throws me off and I frequently end up posting the comment to the wrong entry.
