Your soul is your garden & your actions are your seeds. You can choose to grow flowers or let your garden turn to weeds. I prefer flowers :)

I'm looking for a person to help me who loves being outside and gardening. They need to speak English and has a current drivers license and a running car. They must be in good shape and can work in the hot sun. A non smoker is also very important. Please let me know if you know anyone.Thank you.

This great looking tree is a Tibouchina urvillvana, more commonly known as a Princess Flower. If you love purple, it yields lovely flowers in that color. It's a very manageable tree that doesn't get too big. But it does have special needs; such as feeding, watering, and afternoon shade. Here's one that I just picked up for a client.

Water. Water. Water. Summer isn't over and it's going to get hotter. We've had the coolest summer ever in southern California. I think that hotter days are still ahead. You can still keep fertilizing.
