As a small child I watched and learned as my father planted our garden.
As a boy of 10 or 11, my favorite part of the State Fair was not the Midway but rather the marvelous old Hall of Flowers, with it's towering waterfalls, beautiful tuberous begonias, huge dahlia blooms and the sweet fragrance of orchids; all of which left lasting impressions. Those childhood experiences grew into hanging out in a local nursery and trying to grow anything and everything in our yard.
I would ask strangers for cuttings from their plants and an inspection of my pockets at any time could reveal seeds carefully tucked away to take home and plant. That early passion grew into a desire to use all those plants to create places for people to enjoy -- using the plants like notes on a musical score to compose a garden symphony with rhythm, texture, focus, seasonal crescendos, and even to tell stories.
