Tomorrow’s Garden

Last evening was a perfect evening to leisurely  stroll through the gardens of Wave Hill in Riverdale to meet author and  great friend Stephen Orr who has just published his inspirational new book “Tomorrow’s Garden”.

Stephen is the gardening editorial director for Martha Stewart Living magazine and has a fabulous knowledge of gardening and all things green! His book is  just wonderful and even made me want to turn my terrace into a “cutting garden ” created by  Frances Palmer or my absolute favorite garden in the book the “coastal garden”  created by Coleman and Susan Burke. Sadly I have a postage stamp sized terrace and neither gardens would possibly fit  - but I can dream my dreams – thank you Stephen.

Its a delight to read the book and The Green Vase sends you many Congratulations.

Just a few of the beautiful plants in the Wave Hill Gardens  Foxgloves, Clematis and Scented Lavender.

My Mum from England and my good friend Alicia from Riverdale, My hubby Paul took all the photographs. Great evening had by all.
