I live in the Greater Houston area of Texas, but my husband and I have owned almost ten acres of land in The Big Thicket forest for years...we're trying to get moved there within a year and your pictures give me such inspiration for part of the land. I am thrilled to see the pine trees surrounded around the perimeter by hostas. I don't know if I've seen such beautiful, flowing gardens.

Maybe Hubby would let me come and drool in person although he would probably be afraid of all the new ideas I would come home with and projects for him to do.<br /> Thanks for the visit and have a great weekend!

But it does make for some pretty garden shots :-) Those tall lilies look like the 'Triumphator' Lilies I ordered online, only to find once they opened that they had sent me the wrong variety. Bummer. Take it easy in that heat! I'm "used to" it and it still zaps me!Toni - Signature Gardenshttp://signaturegardens.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942892890615806086.post-40303556980245867062011-07-23T13:59:35.828-05:002011-07-23T13:59:35.828-05:00What a gorgeous garden.
