It's on my wish list, too, but dunno when I'll get to DC. I love the planted arch and begonia in a bottle.

I hope they weren't supposed to demonstrate something we could do in our home gardens!<br /><br />I like the small dooryard gardens in the older DC neighborhoods, too -- small gardens encourage folks to be creative, I think.<br /><br />Depressing to see those trees still in burlap - someone was pretty clueless. <br /><br />Cheers,<br />LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06657232418012801175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-16020031142296889952011-06-30T21:37:48.346-05:002011-06-30T21:37:48.346-05:00Oy!
