You guys should come for a visit some year.<br /><br />Lani, I think there is always back-breaking work involved especially with the lack of any machines to help. The main problem I have is that the soil they used for fill when they constructed this place is horrible stuff, white chalky clay. If you go ten feet, it becomes concrete rubble that they swept up from somewhere, another ten feet and it is beautiful and so on. <br /><br />The folks that grow all the flowers here are just very good at it. They know all the secrets.... and they have good soil, enough water and the right conditions. After that... it's all easy.Christopher Stowenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17338834673351573616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710073417412924020.post-24697340123933167882012-07-19T00:28:45.721-05:002012-07-19T00:28:45.721-05:00It's nice to see the results of all your back ...It's nice to see the results of all your back breaking work. <br />However, I was wondering, since you have photographed many events with beautiful flowers . . . Do all the flower growers have to put in that much effort or are there surrounding areas that are not clay or are naturally more fertile?Laninoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710073417412924020.post-86156047644976904452012-07-18T16:17:37.031-05:002012-07-18T16:17:37.031-05:00Beautiful.
