Even fall rains can't get Ted and Nancy Dobson's garden down. This tiny, magical space only gets better with age and the careful attention of its inhabitants. Readers familiar with the space through garden tours or the journal may note the beautiful new water feature at right, one of the Dobson's summer projects. Stunning, isn't it? It seems that we're not the only ones who love this intricate and collaborative space, and you may get to see this fabulous garden in print soon (more details to come, of course)!

While photos may be worth a 1,000 words, a visit to this garden speaks volumes. The Dobsons' garden (and several of our other gardens) will be on the tour for the Hardy Plant Study Weekend next June 7-10, 2012. Save the date and stay tuned for more information!
