POV: You're just a little guy hanging out under the wild ginger.
My gardens are important to me. They’re a type of art themselves, and they’re also a gallery for conventional artwork. Plus: green.
In winter, I work on the inside of my house. It was built in 1905, and it and the gardens, and the books I write will be my legacy. It’s a strange thing to consider, “legacy.” I don’t have children. A long time ago I had a son who died when he was less than a year old. Now, today, I have gardens. And art. And words. And love.

Need something to cheer you up? Here's a leaf of western wild ginger (Asarum caudatum) found on Sauvie Island in Oregon. These evergreen moments in the Pacific Northwest winter remind me that life persists in spite of hardship, and so shall I.

The wild ginger is ginging quite wildly... which is good because the garlic mustard I got it to replace is also back. I got pesto to make 😤
