THE SECRET GARDEN - BLOG
The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett, was written in 1888 and is the
inspiration for this column. Never read it? This famous children's book is inspiring to everyone! On these pages you will find useful information on gardening that will help you grow beautiful flowers in your own home. Also, check our LINKS page for links to helpful gardening sites.
If your great lawn looks like this (our's does) this time of year, well, don't fret. The garden catalogs have started to arrive and it's a great time to plan what new things you will plant next season. Throw some herbs into a pot and place them in a sunny windowsill- magic may happen!

Our garden is in full bloom right now..a wild bloom unlike the early start to the past spring. Here is a bench in the corner of the garden- it's a great place to sit and watch bees, butterflies and birds.
So, you live in SUBURBIA and you feel like you'll never get that "country feel" to your garden? We live in suburbia too, and one solution to a chain link fence is a great plant called a Silver Lace Vine, or Polygonum (Fallopia) aubertii
- This is its second year and now I have to walk around it to speak with my neighbor! You'll notice a mirror- we have one on each side so both yards get a great view and a secret garden mirror element! Find two mirrors the same size, and wire them to each side of the fence, back to back. We found these at TJ Max for $12 each!
