Welcome to my new website, a work-in-progress which I will continue to update with photos, garden musings, festive recipes, and whatever else fits my fancy.  Armed with a new digital camera  (can’t put it down!) to chronicle the ever-changing glories of the garden and honing my computer skills (which is much less fun!) I hope I will inspire and delight...

Find out about my books, feature articles, lectures and tours, and read about what’s new. Travel with me on tours of the gardens and intimate “outdoor rooms” surrounding  my purple bungalow in Austin, Texas, and view the folk art and whimsy within my colorful home.

Thank you for visiting.  I add new material often, so please bookmark my site and come back soon!
