Re: Back to my garden....

Well, anyone who visits gardens knows they can't depend on the weather or
bloom times.  However, those who visit railroad gardens should be able to
expect a railroad.  If you've got until October to decide, I'd tell him 'no
dice' if the hardscape isn't in at that time.  If it were me, I'd put my
foot down earlier than that because your perennials (which go in after the
hardscape - meaning train and stream, etc) should be in in September at the
latest to be of much consequence next year.
