		<description><![CDATA[While visiting the garden of one of my favorite clients yesterday I was really pleased with how it looked in the middle of February.  When designing, one of my priorities is to create a garden that looks good throughout the year.  Luckily, living in Northern California&#8217;s zone 9, this is a very attainable goal.  However, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lani Freymiller has created one of the most incredible gardens I&#8217;ve ever seen (read more about it here).  Her garden is filled with countless design concepts and creative ideas. So many, in fact, that instead of writing the world&#8217;s longest post I&#8217;ve decided to write several shorter ones and post them throughout the year. This [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Let me state up front that I&#8217;m not a hater when it comes to lawns.  There, I&#8217;ve said it. If you have a lawn and you or your kids actually use it, then it&#8217;s okay in my book.  Especially if you don&#8217;t have unrealistic expectations that you need to saturate your garden with chemicals to keep [...]]]></description>

Things that may be broken or have lost their usefulness are all too often headed to the dump.  But hold up!  Sometimes all that&#8217;s needed is a coat of paint, a little sprucing up and a healthy dose of creativity to use that item in a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know what it is, but I just LOVE designing gardens for people who aren&#8217;t from California.  Or the United States, for that matter.  I think it&#8217;s because I live in Northern California where the majority of the population are from someplace other than Northern California. Earlier this year, I wrote a post with [...]]]></description>
