Idleness and contemplation in all stages, beginning with the
planning......spend idle time in the area before you ever start and
let
your mind do it's thing...as Bill says, let it develop and grow as
you
to develop and grow. Contemplation, not completion is the goal.....

That's kind of why I refer to it as a Meditation Walk. I've been
meditating
on it for three years. Simply by relocating the path, I've opened up
all
sorts of possibilities.
But you're right. The rhododendrons are a must. I'll start there, then
sit,
look, and think some more before I decide on the next step. I'm trying
to
picture what it will be ten years from now.
But, come next Spring, I'd still like to see colors other than green
and
brown.

Thanks, Bill, that's above and beyond.
I was out again looking over the space, and I'm still not getting a clear
vision. I'm taking Charlie's advice and contemplating... Problem is, I see a
couple of elements that will be coming OUT, but I'm not getting a picture
yet of what's going IN.
Looks like I need another trip to Longwood Gardens and our local Chanticleer
for some ideas. I think Chanticleer (
http://www.chanticleergarden.org) would
be particularly helpful, since they have a multitude of different settings
around the estate.
Meanwhile, I count seven rhodos that need to go in this week...
