4 gardens!
I have been traveling to four corners of BC. I am lucky to have family and friends spread all over this great province.
Garden #1 Hornby Island:
My journey started on Hornby Island. The garden was sweet and natural but the gate...Now that was to die for!! I've already put in a request to my husband!
Garden #2 OKeefe Ranch:
The second garden on my journey, O'Keefe Ranch, is where my husband and I "tied the knot" so to speak 15 years ago. Not much has changed. ( I mean the ranch not our marriage!!?!?!) The kitchen garden was sweet and simple, loved it!. The over 100 weather was a tad hot!
Garden #3 Vernon:
The third garden is my mother-in-laws. Lovely lovely lovely. It is mostly pots, beautifully displayed, she loves pinks and purples!! And look... in the morning you can jump in the lake, go for a waterski, tube, whatever...have a quick breakfast, laze around and tend to the flowers in the hot afternoon, siesta, crack open some "brew" before dinner, slip back out for a ski before the burgers are BBQ'd to perfection, then cozy up to a handsome someone, uncork that merlot...and enjoy the fading sun.
It just doesn't get much better than that!... we cried when we left.
Garden #4 Carol's garden:
The fourth garden belongs to my dear friend Carol who has recently moved to White Lake. For those of you who have no idea where White Lake is...don't despair, it is a really well kept secret...I think the locals do this on purpose. It is hidden in a stunning valley just off the highway between Salmon Arm and Kamloops. How they found this piece of paradise I don't know, but it is paradise. Her garden is overflowing which isn't surprising. You see I have this theory that a persons garden is a reflection of their personality. Carol has always had the biggest heart and been the best of friends. Her garden overflows as her heart does! I did have to share Carol's attention with her new miniature horse (not a pony I fast learned) I had a wonderful visit as only two old friends can have and returned with bags of carrots, beets, apples and turnips. That is my kind of garden!

This site is absolutely wonderful. I am a huge fan of flowers and the peace and enjoyment they bring to children, along with the whole family.
I also have an apothecary and tisane shop and would like to display your work.
Do you place your photos in a card format for me to sell in my store.
Thank you
Judy Bennett
