a wall of plants

Here is a picture of one of my walls at home... ok, not really though i bet you thought i was so cool for a while there. But one day it will be, I already asked my hubby and he said yes i could have a wall of greens when he is a big fancy lawyer. Is there not anything cooler then these vertical gardens?

A simple and less expensive way of creating these vertical gardens is by using a root pouch. I have seen them displayed along portland's streets, and they are beautiful and eco-friendly.

real wedding: bridget + dan

This was a beautiful backyard garden wedding, held at the house of some friends. It was record breaking hot this day, something like 106 degrees. The wedding was an eclectic  mix of vintage and garden. There was a lot of vintage vases from the bride's great grandma (how cool is that boot!!??), and handpicked blueberries on each table. This first picture shows all the flowers huddled together next to the air conditioning so that they don't wilt in the heat. Thankfully, we all - including most of the flowers- survived the heat and had a beautiful time!
