This last month has been filled with some of my favorite things: learning, pruning, and traveling to visit friends and family.
Mid-September brought a trip to Shin-boku Nursery, where my advanced practice of Japanese pruning began last year. I toured some beautiful new Japanese-inspired gardens, spent time visiting the plants I pruned last year to see how they have changed over time, plus I received some specific training on pruning a specimen Dwarf White Pine (Pinus strobus 'Nana') with Deb and Palmer Koelb. The level of artistry and care that is given to each of the Shin-boku Nursery plants is so impressive! I am so thankful for the time my gracious hosts spent teaching me about plants, gardens, and living a blessed life.
Following my trip to New Hampshire, I got to visit my favorite gardening friend and teacher- my mom. We worked together in her garden for an afternoon and bonded over dandelions, sod, and soil. It was another beautiful weekend.
I hope you all have a fantastic fall enjoying nature!
