RE: My garden

Not much to look at? Stop being so humble. Everything looks fabulous! I
love the "woodland" garden behind the house too. I can't have one of those
yet as I have no significant woods for a few more years. The pots are so
bright and cheery and I love the stands they are on. Great job Chris!
