I live in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina. I have dabbled in many art forms and adore spending time in our beautiful flower garden surrounded by all the natural wonders of hill and rock and stream. My husband is a gifted landscaper and I am a gifted "weeder"! My favorite activity is sitting on the ground and weeding and grooming our beloved plant friends while our little West Highland Terrier, Tucker, hops about, hunts and plays in the rocky stream. We raise and sell unusual wildflowers along with other select perennials and small trees. Our website is http://www.swallowtailgardens.net. There are some lovely photographs there that we love to share with people. I have health issues which have tied me to a very simple lifestyle. I consider myself fortunate.
