Who we are  

Evelyn Wolf
Garden Consultant
Perennial Garden Designer,
 Seminar Speaker, Freelance Garden Writer.

Gardening has been my pass-time, business, and passion for what seems like forever. This passion for a garden's possibilities and the enrichment even the smallest patch can bring to our lives goes into every project I undertake whether it be designing a new garden with my hands in the dirt, or writing how-to articles in the depths of winter.

Over 25 year’s hands-on gardening experience, 15 year’s teaching classes and writing gardening articles for print and web, and 10 years operating a garden specialty bookstore where all my curiosities could be explored, has been my training ground.

This varied background has introduced me to - thousands of plants as a self confessed obsessive collector;  the teaching of horticulture’s leading authorities through the professional reference books always at hand;  and hundreds of fads, trends, and myths from the many clients and customers I've had the pleasure of dealing with and gardening articles researched and written.

Whatever project is at hand my
      
 * fascination with how plants grow,
              
 * respect for their ability to survive our follies,
                       
 * and admiration for the endless creative     
                                  possibilities a garden inspires,
    is evident.

A fascination with the amateur science of what makes plants and gardens tick led me to explore and develop a respect for the natural cycles of a garden’s life both above ground in the plants, and below ground in the soil that feeds and supports them.  Combined with the creative possibilities offered by even the tiniest patch of ground, and the results are a holistic approach that works together with natural plant cycles and local conditions to create gardens that truly 
thrive in both beauty and health, in both the short and long term
.
