She has open days in the summer when she lets people visit.

The eclectic look of the garden looks as if it developed over many years. The bright colors, unexpected use of plants like Swiss Chard, artwork ... it all feels very whimsical and I can understand how it evoked a sense of joy. Inspiring garden!hanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06345461191452355465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-21862648252506574012018-11-23T08:53:37.423-08:002018-11-23T08:53:37.423-08:00Lucinda's garden is one-of-a-kind, as is she. ...Lucinda's garden is one-of-a-kind, as is she.

Agree w/ks above, you completely "captured the essence." Great fresh perspective on Lucinda's masterpiece from your lens to us!

I have really struggled with trying to document this garden,and hope to post about it this winter -but you have really captured it's essence , and had enough presence of mind to get so many great blogger-free shots. Love my bloggers but it's a challenge to present confined spaces full of peeps and still show the full impact of the garden itself and the plants within. kshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10847026541797857854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-3915651514064030512018-11-22T14:36:45.120-08:002018-11-22T14:36:45.120-08:00You did a fantastic job with the photos, not that ...You did a fantastic job with the photos, not that I haven't come to expect that of you. The vividness of the colors in your photos encapsulates the spirit of the garden's creator.
