ReplyDeleteI am so proud of you, Jimmy. You are so deserving of all these wonderful opportunities that are happening at this moment in your life. I love and miss you very much!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Photographs! I am thinking of applying to Longwoods Professional Gardener Program. I have always wanted to. I live in the Bronx so it's exciting to see you living out my dream...especially playing in English Gardens! I am a volunteer docent at The New York Botanical Garden when my work schedule permits.
ReplyDeleteI wish you much happiness and success. I have thousands of books on every facet of horticulture/gardening and dream of doing exactly what you are doing. I wish I could talk to you about Longwoods Professional Gardener program.
