In New England, June often feels like the official beginning of summer, even though the season technically arrives later in the month.

Thanks New Hampshire Home Magazine @nhhomemag for giving me the “parting shot” in the January/February issue.

Molinia arundinacea ‘skyracer’ is such a beautiful and elegant grass against the white snow.

Many were predicting that it would be a poor year for colorful foliage in New England because of the dry conditions this summer.

In some sort of cosmic ying and yang way, one of the least appealing vegetables for me to consume redeems itself in the end with its beauty.
