Welcome to the GrowLively Blog

Welcome to my little corner of the gardening blog universe. I originally started this blog as a way for my good gardening buddy, Carolyn, and I to keep up with our gardening goings on. She prodded, I complied. Gardening has a way of keeping people connected even over long distances. It's always fun comparing her Brooklyn garden and my Texas garden. After a little time went by, I found the blog had evolved into a great way for me to keep track of what I do in my garden and when...which as a professional horticulturist I rarely seem to have time to do properly! It helped keep me a little more organized as well as provided inspiration for my magazine writing. I hope you enjoy my garden antics and I'm honored to be of help.
