From the time I was a little girl, helping my mom plant sweet peas, to being in the nursery business for almost twenty years…I’ve loved gardening. Some of my best days were spent whiling away my time in the garden, visiting nurseries, browsing through endless garden books and magazines, and garden design ideas at Waterwise Botanicals plant nursery.

Working in this industry has taught me well, but what I love most is the creativity that goes along with it. Designing a beautiful landscape, or meeting such wonderful people who share their enthusiasm & ideas for gardening. I never tire of discovering new plants, or changing up the mood of my garden.

​I have a passion for photography and writing, so you will usually find me with my camera trying to capture a shot of a beautiful plant or design. My articles are written to inspire, encourage, and share some pearls of wisdom I’ve gathered through the years, as well as highlight other authors, plants and concepts that are trending in design. So, let’s take a journey together “IN THE GARDEN”.

I love Lavender...the way it looks, the scent...the color! It's a beautiful perennial in the garden. It is graceful, does not grow too tall, and is reasonable with medium water needs. Our three varieties are Goodwin's Creek, Dentata, & Stoechas. Their main blooming season is summer. I love cutting them to go with Roses in a bouquet. Their scents together are heavenly. They do love to be in the sun where they perform the best, and they look great in a cottage garden atmosphere. There are many books on drying lavender, as well as the internet, with simple instructions. I've seen so many pictures of Lavender tied with twine and hung upside down to dry in a sunny window. I plan to visit the Lavender fields in Fallbrook next month. It will definitely be aroma therapy at its best. I've seen plant magazines with ways to make your own soaps and creams as well. As a Lavender and Rose lover, Π† usually choose those scents for candles, and lotions. I invite you this season to step into the world of lavender in your garden. I'm sure you will find it very ""scent"ual". If you would like to visit the Lavender festival in Fallbrook, you can click here to see their calendar of events for special U-Pick days. Hope you enjoy!
