I couldn't design landscapes without knowing the secret of alternating formal & informal garden rooms. Yes, learned in Italy. LOL, posted about it today on my blog using Great Dixter pics. Vanishing Threshold was born in Italy. Congrats on your Martha Stewart interview. With those pics she should do a lifestyle book about skin care, hair, make-up, clothing, & etc. She looks great.

Your piece really captures the splendor of the place--and what that grand garden can tell us about organizing our own small plots. I relived the experience all over again.

What a great place to celebrate, surrounded by timeless beauty and great garden design. That photo you captioned "The panoramic view of Monte Amiata and the Tuscan valley. Who wouldn't have moved here and stayed for a lifetime?" could be Southern CA. Too bad we don't have those great Tuscan estates, too! Debra Hi, Deb — Happy half century!

We did not have near enough time to explore it properly. I am still of the mind we should have had a glass of Tuscan red in hand to watch the sun set over the iconic landscape.
