Her garden is truly one of the finest in plant materials and design and one of the most gracious hostesses you can find.

I think I have seen photos of Intas garden in FG, many year ago. If I recall correctly the exact age of the garden is 38.

The layering of plants and the variations in foliage color brought to mind aspects of the Hillwood Estate (without the creepy statues). You were so lucky to see it before the ownership passed to someone else, and your readers are lucky that you've shared your visit! And I have to add that the bottle tree in front of Intas' studio is the best I've ever seen - perfectly placed.Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.com
