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. • USDA Hardiness Zone:4 • AHS Heat Zone: 3 • Location: rural; Southern Tier of NY • Geographic type: foothills of Appalachian Mountains • Soil Type: acid clay • Experience level: intermediate • Particular interests: colchicums, narcissus, cottage gardening, NY native plants, gardening with/for children

Nice write up on your garden and all it contains. I liked how she wrote about two of your lovely daughters. I would like to visit and meet all of your family someday~~Dee

you’re inspiring another young (or at least new) gardener in the spirit of sharing beloved plants. I’ve heard them called “passalong plants,” and you’re passing along your knowledge and passion, as always! deb
