Thank you Victoria, Tim died before the internet era, I want to make sure he is well remembered. I loved my days in CT too, the great people I met and swimming in that lake after a hot summer day of work.
Ivan, The Garden Room is one of my all-time favorite gardening books. I eventually visited most of those gardens and they all have had a big influence on my own garden in New Hampshire, Your photographs and illustrations are extraordinary and inspiring. Thanks for this lovely post.

Ivan! Your work with Tim Mawson = One of my favorite books in the universe. I love seeing this! Such great happiness. :)
Thank you for all this Connecticut. It's where my grandparents lived. I miss it. Often.

Really cool to think of you in Connecticut.

I knew Tim through the ABAA. He was quite a gentleman, so talented, and so very special. Thank you for these visual reminders of his grace.

Michael, coming from a true gardener as yourself, this is a great compliment. Thank you
Marjorie, Oh yes Tim was gentleman, so witty and kind and a bit lazy too... I'm happy to hear you knew him.
