I've always liked any knot gardens and how cool it looks when the plants 'knot' and link. The way you've planned yours in a circle is ideal for viewing point.

Glad this little project gave you something to think about on this dreary day.<BR/><BR/>Carol it has been several years since I have been to WRG in Indy. As a matter of fact I almost went there this weekend because we were in INdy area. We looked online to see if there was something going on at the gardens and since there was nothing of interest we ended up at the Eiteljorg instead. All this being said I don't remember a knot garden at WRG. What stuck in my mind was the mist garden. I loved the way that mist machine made it feel like you were in the a swamp or almost a sacred area. <BR/><BR/>Gudl we have a long way to go until summer. This warm weather has just been a tease.<BR/><BR/>Thank you Ewa.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-87141511208669051782008-01-10T01:20:00.000-05:002008-01-10T01:20:00.000-05:00your knot-garden is great idea - it will look even...your knot-garden is great idea - it will look even better the bigger buxus will grow.<BR/>It is nice to see planning and executing :)<BR/>Greetings,Ewahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02460827662984311538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-31680500008886662602008-01-09T21:52:00.000-05:002008-01-09T21:52:00.000-05:00that looks very nice.

I didn't like the way it turned out by me trying to take a picture of a picture so this is all I have to show.<BR/><BR/>I will look forward to seeing your trip. All I know is they must put in huge bushes to get them to look so full and lush in a short time. <BR/><BR/>Thany you Layanee.<BR/><BR/>David it sounds like your drought was much worse than ours. I hope it isn't repeated this summer. This winter is becoming a wet one. I think we are catching up with some of the rain we need to replenish the rivers etc in this area. We had a flash flood watch last night.<BR/><BR/>You are most welcome Frances. I know they probably take better care of their knots than I do. I am sort of a live and let die kind of gardener. i could tell the knot needed water this summer when the salvias would wilt. You know it is dry if salvias wilt.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376606540097525538.post-86007200861401582912008-01-09T17:49:00.000-05:002008-01-09T17:49:00.000-05:00Thanks for the link!

Also, because of the drought we have very severe water restrictions in our cities.

I've always been fascinated by knot gardens. Too much planning for me though! <BR/><BR/>In the coming months I'm going to post about our trip to Villandry, a chateau in the Loire valley that had the most spectacular knot gardens and parterres I've ever seen.
