6 days ago | finegardening.com | Kaitlyn Hayes

Happy Friday GPODers!We started the week in Germany, admiring spring in Yana’s forget-me-not-filled garden (Yana’s Forget-Me-Nots in Germany) and we’re wrapping up the week back in Europe to revisit an English garden with an unbelievably tropical feel. Four years ago we were introduced to Fabrice Aru, a French transplant living in Chigwell, Essex, England, who created an immersive garden in a small space (Check out that submission here: A French Garden in the UK).

Hi GPODers!My favorite kind of spring cleaning is the type that shakes the dust off and uncovers gems that we lost in the bustle of busier times. When sorting through seed packets unveils the stash of heirloom seeds you forgot about, or digging through a garden shed unburies a pretty pot that you haven’t used in years.

Hi GPODers!Welcome to day 2 of spring in Beth Tucker’s garden in Waxhaw, North Carolina. Yesterday we admired Beth’s incredible assortment of camellias, irises, flowering quince and magnolia, but she has even more early bloomers that we get to enjoy today (if you missed yesterday’s post, check it out here). A mangave and pot of pansies on our front porch. I have several mangaves now and although some had winter damage, they are putting out new growth.
Noninvasive Alternatives to Privet Hedge

2 weeks ago | finegardening.com | Christine Alexander

With origins as far back as the Bronze Age, hedges were used to corral livestock to protect crops, defend land from invaders, and, eventually, define the boundaries of property and gardens. Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) was introduced into the United States in the early 1800s, and a neatly trimmed privet hedge quickly became the signature of a well-maintained garden.
Getting Creative with Patio Materials

2 weeks ago | finegardening.com | Christine Alexander

When it comes to landscape design, patios are the most requested hardscape element from my clients, and for good reason—they serve as a central hub of activity and a visual anchor for the rest of the garden. They’re also one of the best places to unleash your creativity with materials. Why do I say that? A patio, at its most basic, is just a flat space on the ground where you’re going to do some low-impact stuff, like sitting around making s’mores.

With their bright flavors and quick growth, these four spring crops are sure to please a winter-weary palate. Wake up your spring salads with a blend of pungent mustard greens like ‘Red Giant’, ‘Miz America’, and ‘Green Wave’.
