I think you pushed me over the edge from "maybe" to "definitely". I'm not sure how plant driven design would actually work in my garden, but I have fallen in love with plants more than design lately, so I think it would be a good read for me.

With that said, I do have several pots that have some fun not so native plants to spice things up:)Rohrerbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02136631378931478644noreply@blogger.com
