Tuscan gardenlike...

Our adventures in Appy rendered the materials for a Tuscan garden. Our cypress tree, Grazia, took the most care for preparing. Before, Grazia, and the lavender and santolina ...

With a little coaxing, and many stones lighter...

After, came the horseshoe and shadow...

Appy, Part Deux...

We went to Appy, the amazing nursery nearby...

We were so eager to get planting that we were able to convince the pepinier (nurseryman) to help us pack everything into the car:

- one 15 ft tall weeping willow tree

- one 8 ft tall cypress tree

- two santolina bushes

- ten assorted grasses

- twelve lavender plants

Oh yes, we did.

The trunk full of greens...
