I am Mel Bellar and I own and operate this
outfit. The photos in the slide show were mostly
taken this past summer. They begin with some
images of my Cabin Garden and go on to show some of
the new work we have done this busy year as well as
revisiting some gardens from earlier seasons to show
their progress. Following a garden through the years is very gratifying as the old adage, "The first year it sleeps, the second it creeps and the third it leaps", is really true. It is always a challenge to make a newly installed garden look great and plan for it to look good in 3 years, 5 years and 10 years. It involves choosing the right plants, placing them optimally and either patience while they fill in or the willingness to do some thinning as the garden grows. "Gardening is the slowest form of the performing arts." This anonymous and provocative quote is a good introduction for the new gardener or client and a great reminder for the landscape designer. |
