Where can I see some nice looking roses?
Comments (11)Yes, I'm talking about Mike Lowe's. Unless it has been cleared out a bit because he's no longer propagating and selling roses, it's also pretty much just roses because that's the only way it would begin to all fit. Unless it has changed, Elizabeth Park is mostly modern roses. It's an AARS test garden, so is obligated to grow a lot of new varieties. It's a good opportunity to see why new varieties aren't the greatest idea around here, but isn't that big on alternatives. I haven't been to Roger Williams park yet, but heard Mike Chute speak a few years ago. I remember him being one of those 'experts' who honestly has no clue how his favorite roses do after being hit with -15°F, or relatively normal zone 5 temperatures. Being mixed up with a big public HT garden for several years now, I helps to think of them as public utilities. They are there for photographic opportunities, for people to stroll through and enjoy. They are *NOT* display gardens for the purpose of showing people what roses do well in that area. Because that leads right into the big can of worms that most roses that do well here are once bloomers. So they are fine for a private gardener who knows how to handle them and mix them up with other things. However, they truly puzzle public gardens. I haven't been to Mike Lowe's in about 8 years. The last time I was there, it was one of his Open Garden days. Belle_Isis was there, we both brought the kids, and took turns watching them as they played on the swingset Mike had set up for his grandchildren....See MoreOutdated brick but potential???

Comments (39)With a yard that big you need the trees! Big mistake if you cut them down. The house could use bigger windows in front and new updated landscaping. BTW, I'm not some treehugger. You have to know cutting down those big, beautiful mature trees would DIMINISH the "look" of your property. People buy lots like yours and tear down the house for those trees and your big front yard. They don't take away from the house at all, they add to it....See MoreLooking for a nice big yellow
Comments (45)Kristine - Congrats on TG! Mine came from Heirloom too and in one year it will be close to 4x4, the largest an own root plant has grown for me in its first year. I live near San Francisco and my Heirloom shipments always arrive within two days through UPS. Most of the time the plant comes with leaves but I’m ok with no leaves as long as the plant is healthy overall. I hope you get to plant it soon! Ann...See MoreWhat do I do with this big blank wall?
Comments (19)Hang a tall, vertical art work in colors and a subject you like that will tie into your furnishings. Hang it over a tallish console table on open legs. Do think about hanging a large art work on the dining wall, which can also be viewed as you walk in the door. And, yes, install floor-to-ceiling shelves to flank the fireplace. Are you planning to pull up carpeting? Even if you're not, consider a layered runner from the front door to the wall in question. This creates a "pathway" into the space and towards the art, dining, and living areas. Oh, and remove all the clutter on the paneling on the side of the fridge. You could also put a piece of art there, but probably it's better to leave it blank....See MorePatricia Colwell Consulting
