One of the things I love about Horticulture  is that every season is unique and constantly changing.  I am consistently in awe every Spring as I watch for tree buds to wake up and the first signs of life coming from the ground.  As the Summer continues I am able to view the various focal plants taking turns and enjoying the spotlight.  Spending time in your gardens allows me a different experience every month as the seasons change.
Another aspect that changes from year to year is our particular Rocky Mountain weather. Â Heavy May snow falls can confuse and stress plants that have already awaken. Â Dry, drought conditions, and water restrictions can limit our plant pallets. Â It is challenging, yet rewarding to experiment and create gardens for our growing conditions. Â I am also committed to focusing on sustainable practices and mindful of climate changes.
From Spring to Fall I chose some of my favorite images from this season. Â Can you spot your garden? Â Enjoy!
