One of my favorite memories from touring with @thegardenconservancy was visiting @lossingmanor, easily one of my favorite gardens I’ve seen in a long time. A garden that completely captivated me with its extraordinary sense of rhythm. The repetition of color, the thoughtful placement of architectural elements, and the beautiful balance between structure and abundance made every turn feel like a perfectly composed picture. The garden was positively alive, and very few things are more satisfying than watching great sweeps of planting gently sway in the summer breeze. In some ways, a beekeeper’s dream garden…..buzzing with life and seemingly in constant motion. There is something so satisfying about a garden that feels both meticulously considered and entirely effortless. And what a perfect day for it all, blue skies, billowing clouds, and the garden at the height of its summer glory. I could have wandered for hours. Take me back! If only summer could have lasted a little longer.

Opening up views of the mountains💚 A less intrusive hedge. Provides privacy but also allows you to see the views. #gardencowboy #hedgeking #transformation #gardens #art

A few of the many highlights from visiting gardens through @thegardenconservancy Open Days program. There are few better ways to spend a weekend, whether beneath blue skies or even in the rain, than wandering through one of the remarkable private gardens generously opened to the public. Beyond their beauty, these gardens offer something even more valuable. The opportunity to learn directly from the gardeners and owners who have shaped them through years, and often decades, of thoughtful care. Every conversation may reveal a new plant, a clever technique, or a fresh way of looking at the landscape. It is an experience that leaves you inspired, not only by what you have seen, but by the practical horticultural wisdom that can only come from experience. With the Open Days season continuing through the end of September, there is still plenty of time to visit extraordinary gardens both locally and across the country. Whether you are an avid gardener or simply someone who appreciates beautiful places, It’s an absolute must!

Over the weekend, @lossingmanor, @thegardenconservancy hosted their annual open day, welcoming visitors into one of the region’s most enchanting gardens. Though modest in size, the garden feels remarkably expansive. The main hedged garden is awash with salvias, gauras, and other pollinator-friendly plantings, creating a sea of soft purples and whites that sway gently in the breeze. Just beyond the garden walls, an equally impressive meadow unfolds, further blurring the boundary between cultivated garden and surrounding landscape. What Lossing Manor does so beautifully is demonstrate the power of restraint. Rather than relying on endless varieties, the garden is composed of just a handful of carefully chosen plants, repeated in generous sweeps that create rhythm, texture, and a wonderful sense of cohesion. It is a lesson in how thoughtful mass planting can achieve far more than complexity ever could. Above all, it is a garden alive with pollinators. The air hums with bees, butterflies drift from flower to flower, and every planting seems to serve a purpose. For those seeking inspiration for their own pollinator gardens, there are few better places to visit. A true reminder that sometimes the simplest plant palette can create the most extraordinary effect.

A beautiful start to summer, filled with roses, friends, and of course, countless gardens. While the season has arrived with a touch more warmth than usual, it’s wonderful to see everything in full swing at last. The gardens are blooming, the days are long, and best of all, there is still so much more to come. Cheers to everyone taking the time to stop and smell the roses! 💐

In Covid I purchased an old organic herb farm. There are 5 acres to grown on, a 6,000 square foot building to hopeful have a pottery in and some out buildings for retail use. @orangeriegarden will be moving into a newly renovated out building tomorrow, Thursday, Friday, Saturday 9am-3pm. We’ll post some photo’s of the transformation later today. Hope to see you at the new @orangeriegarden which is 6 mins south of Millbrook 2765 Rt 82 Pleasent valley, near Sky Acres in Lagrange. Some history on the farm is in the last two photos. I’m told the train station was used for moving water into NYC. #progresseveryday #newbeginnings #spring #gardendesign
