Am located just on the outskirts of Marion, halfway between Indy and Ft. Wayne, and would enjoy meeting with other serious gardeners who are facing the challenges of landscape design. Would like to tour each others gardens and swap plants, seeds, ideas, experiences and encouragement.

Knew what I was doing in the South with Azaleas and Camellias etc. but the Hoosier climate (and soil) is a challenge.

Been at this in Indiana for 25 years and slowly making some progress at establishing something of which I can take some pride....but always looking for plants to add to the collection (especially evergreens and conifers).

Anybody out there interested in sharing info and tours?
E-mail me anytime.

Best regards and remember that Gardeners do "know the best dirt !"

I'm in Indy - a little far for your average tour, but if you get down here, let me know. I've been fighting this clay soil, but have extensive landscaping, from vines to bulbs to shrubs to koi pond. Visitors always welcome.
