It made me want to move to the other side of the continent. I am glad Heronswood is coming back to life.

I'm so glad it's being restored under Hinkley's supervision.

I felt like a real gardener when I was able to read them since they're all botanical Latin. And I read everything to see what snide comments Dan had snuck in! My regret is that I did not buy more and take better care of my early purchases. I foolishly thought they'd be around forever just like Roslyn Nursery and Seneca Hill. Those shots of the Erythroniums have me drooling. I am just getting started on those and anxiously awaiting the appearance of the ones I planted last fall.
