ReplyDeleteHi Phillip, love the photo of you two. I can vouch for Hydrangea 'Little Honey', it is worthy. :-)

How nice that you got to see her in person and see her pictures! I'll have to get those books you mentioned. I have her Perennials book and it's one of those I always go back to. I have Toothwort and Phlox 'Minnie Pearl' from her list and they are both beautiful performers.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great evening. Nothing like a jolt of inspiration after a long hot summer.
ReplyDeletePhillip, How wonderful to meet her~I love the little evergreen azalea and would love to have it in my garden! gail
ReplyDeleteThis must have been a great experience for you. If you are interested in growing your own loofah sponges, drop by.
ReplyDeleteVery nice that you got to meet her!
ReplyDeleteLucky you! I loved her book "Color Echoes," which has been very influential in the development of my garden. If I lived in Zone 7, I'd buy all her books.
ReplyDeletePamela certainly knows her plants. Did you see her on a Gardener's Diary?
ReplyDeleteGreat photo!
I have Pamela's book! I remember seeing her on a garden show and went right to Amazon and got the book! I bought it when I was up in the NY tundra, I'll be heading right up to get it out and start planning my wish list!!
