Hey pollyK.

I just read your post back on January 9th. I have been so busy with our future new house and baby daughter. Our settlement is on the 18th (next Friday).

Anyway, I have tons of pictures of Longwood Gardens, but they are on a computer about to be packed up. I have some photos of projects that I designed for my company. I think it's okay to post them because of the copyright. Here is one photo. The field / embankment in front of our client's house was bare. They wanted to use all of their Spruce and Oak in the backyard to eventually grow into a natural screening and 'peek-a-boo' their home. I designed the project so that each plant seemed to have naturally grown in the spots they are in the picture. The client mows the field once a year (for control and rejuvenation) and the trees have grown about 3-4' since this picture.
