We used her advice and followed her guide for monthly maintenance for all of our customers. I still use it as a guide to keep my own cottage garden looking as good as possible with minimal hours (I now work full time in a corporate setting).<br />Your garden is an inspiration.<br />KarenKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08064699521293763744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964224117445332873.post-43773404235777234472011-06-04T19:03:56.190-07:002011-06-04T19:03:56.190-07:00Your garden is beautiful!
