Hi Dan, Thanks for posting the pictures.Your sum & substance and the other pictures are just beautiful! Is the maiden hair a fivefinger? We have them here. What a wonderful place you have! I have a few variegated sports of sum and substance. I'm a hosta fanatic. thanks for sharing your wonderful place with us!...sharon

Thanks Sharon, the maidenhair fern is native here, but I also have the five finger. Here's a few more pics from the shade garden.

Dan, you have a beautiful collection of plants. I especially love your collection of hosta, I have at least a dozen cultivars myself. I'm almost ashamed to admit it here, but gardening for me is at the top of my list, with carving coming in a close second. I actually got started into carving when I was looking for ways to add some ornamentation to my garden. So now, I carve when I can't be outside getting dirt under my fingernails. Beautiful garden.

Thanks Brandant, Actually from early spring til mid summer I don't have much time to carve. We have almost two acres in plants, shrubs, conifers and almost anything else that will grow in our zone on our 6 acre wooded site. Right now the hydrangea's are in full bloom and it won't be long for the ornamental grasses. Thanks again,

Dan
