Finally a nice weekend and I convinced Ian to get a lot done. While he stained the screen porch, and the new slats for the black bench, I spent the whole day building a new bed around the serviceberry and witch hazel.

Who am I?
I am a floral designer living in a tiny condo in downtown Toronto, Canada's largest city. But on the weekend, I am a gardener/frustrated architect trying to keep up with a 3/4 acre garden in Owen Sound, Ontario, a warm (to Canadians, Zone 5b, and a cold (to Americans, Zone 4b) garden.
