Garden Tour

It's all about me! Here I am enjoying myself at the tour. Just sold the drink holders (the blue swirly thing next to me). Everyone agreed the tour was a great success. Best part was seeing friends and neighbors I hadn't seen in a while. Thanks for the picture, Marty!

White Rock East Garden & Artisans Tour - Save the Date

Here's Shelly admiring Mary's wonderful greenhouse in Mary's back yard. John told me the door to the greenhouse is the front door of a house they once owned. Pretty cool.

Animal Adoptions during the Tour

Dallas Animal Services will have a table at the White Rock East Garden and Artisans Tour.   They will be located at the plant sale (across the street from the 8407 San Pedro Garden).  Helping with adoptions will be Rebecca Poling from Companions For Life.  Following is a paragraph about them.  I'm hoping there will be lots of interest and hopefully adoptions.

Companions For Life was formed to fill the most obvious and significant gaps in the animal welfare movement in our community - humane education and shelter outreach.  An all-volunteer, 501 c3 non-profit organization, it is our belief that by providing humane education and shelter outreach we can elevated the role of companion animals in our society and bridge the gaps in animal welfare in our community and nationwide.  Our goal is to provide the public with the necessary education to be respectful and responsible toward all animals and to build in them the confidence to teach others the importance of compassion.  Our shelter outreach programs will provide shelter workers, rescue group volunteers, animal control officers, veterinarians, kennel managers and animal welfare professionals across the Metroplex with the resources they need to do their jobs, to meet their goals, to improve their standing in their community and to earn the respect and admiration they deserve.  For more information, http://www.companionsforlife.org.

White Rock East Garden/Artistans Tour

Sunday, May 18th, from 11:00 to 5:00, Forest Hills, Little Forest Hills and Casa Linda nieghborhoods are the place to be for the garden/artist tour. The artists I asked to participate last year will be back along with a few others. They've been working on pieces for the sale for months. Friends from Fort Worth I insisted on coming last year, (who didn't want to drive over) asked me months ago for the date this year so they could put it on their calendar. The plant sale will be across the street from the garden I'll be displaying my art. My garden is 8407 San Pedro Parkway. Every plant I've bought at the sale during the years has survived in my garden. That's a big statement for the killer plant queen.

Best part - the tour is free. We have raffle tickets to purchase and accept donations.

Mark your calendar today - Sunday, May 18, from 11:00 to 5:00

March Garden Club meeting

March Forest Hills Garden Club meeting was at Mary Ehrenberger's home. I had a Texas Sculpture Association board meeting the same night so I only dropped in for a minute to see her lovely home and yard. Her yard will be featured on the May 18th Garden Tour and by the time the date rolls around her plants will be flourishing. Here's a "before" picture of her back yard with her husband John and son Jonathan in front her greenhouse. I'll be sure and post "after" pictures on the day of the tour.
