Every so often one looks with new eyes at a familiar scene. I can’t say how many times I have visited with my friend Lyndy Broder of Clematis fame; but this visit was different.
Perhaps because the deciduous magnolias were putting on a show of shows or perhaps the trees she planted have finally reached a size in scale with the lake. One thing is certain; this scene will continue to gain in stature.
THIS is Landscape, at its best!
When her home was built on a pasture there was not a tree in sight. The deal she struck with her husband gave her a free hand to plant. This is the result.

Planning…planting…patience…perfection! This is lovely.
So gorgeous! What is that driveway made of? I love it!
Lovely views she has created. I’m sure the clematis blooms are wonderful as well.
I remember when her garden was on A Gardener’s Diary. I was so impressed with her collection of clematis. What a lovely garden! Thanks for sharing with us.
What a treat to see her garden again. I remember a past visit well with a profusion of gorgeous Clematis. What a breathtaking sight!
Love seeing the ‘bones’ of Lyndy’s beautiful garden design. Would love to see more of all 4 seasons with this beautiful structure!
Time to go back !!
Love her style. XO T
