Moonlit Landscapes | Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio | Jackson, TN

Last night was so beautiful 🤩 Jo and I stayed out in the garden till late… It got me to thinking about an event that will be happening later this year… Carters Nursery’s ‘Moonlight Pond Tour’… It didn’t happen last year, but this year, It’s On! 💥

I got out last night and checked my lights in anticipation of the Moonlight Pond Tour. I can’t wait to share this nighttime world with attendees.

The 17th Annual ‘Moonlight Pond Tour’ – Our Annual Night Time Pond Tour is on! The tour always falls on a Saturday Night closest to the Full Harvest Moon! This years date is Saturday September 18th! Mark your calendar and don’t miss this Unique Garden Tour Experience! Carters Nursery is “Pond Central” for the Pond Tour and we invite you to come by throughout the evening to sit a spell, have a drink & a light snack, Enjoy the Fire Pit and look at the BEAUTIFUL Gardens and Water Feature Lighting. I can’t wait!

The ‘Nightscape’ is my favorite!
These are just a few pictures I took last night to show you a glimpse of what’s to come.
The sky was surreal last night. Looking back at the house from a distance was amazing. Just wait till the tour! It will be even more amazing.

The daytime gardens are so much different than the Nighttime garden. The night garden is all about 100% enjoyment!

Have a great Day!

The Sound of The Season | Carters Nursery, Pond and Patio | Jackson, TN

There’s nothing like the first evening in late Winter or Early Spring when you hear the peepers waking up. Their sound fills the air and you know Spring is almost here. Once “Spring has Sprung” that nighttime sound only gets deeper and more intense… Especially when you have a Pond in your Landscape. I literally fell asleep last night sitting by my Pond 😴
So I made a short video recording of the “Sound of the Season” in my yard. Take a listen 🎧

I sure do enjoy the “Nightlife” 😊


Have a good day and even better night!

Monday Morning Moment Of Zen | Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio | Jackson, Tennessee

Saturday night was a perfect, warm summer night – in May! 😊 The moon was so bright that everything cast a dark shadow & the water was crystal clear. Such a beautiful night. I got a wild hair to get out and feed the fish again after midnight in the 🌙 light … & I made this video. 



My Water Garden never grows old! In fact, It calls me outside 😊 This feeling of connection & peace, I ❤️ My Water Garden! I hope this short video brings you a feeling of Zen as well. Have a great Monday!

Sunday Reflections…

Did you see any shooting stars last night? Or early this morning? Guess what? We are in the peak of the Leonids Meteor Shower! 💥 Last night & luckily for you – Tonight, is the BEST time to see some! I read a bit about it to find out a few facts…

If your up, tonight is going to be the best night to see a “Shooting Star”! Between midnight and dawn is the best time… Good news, if you tough it out and see one, YOU get to make a wish 💫

The yearly ‘Leonids come from a Comet that orbits the sun every 33 years! The comets name is Temple/Tuttle. It won’t be back around to us until 2031… Pretty cool huh 😎

 

Leonids Over Us

“The sky is streaked with them
burning hole in black space —
like fireworks, someone says
all friendly in the dark chill
of Newcomb Hollow in November,
friends known only by voices.

We lie on the cold sand and it
embraces us, this beach
where locals never go in summer
and boast of their absence. Now
we lie eyes open to the flowers
of white ice that blaze over us

and seem to imprint directly
on our brains. I feel the earth,
rolling beneath as we face out
into the endlessness we usually
ignore. Past the evanescent
meteors, infinity pulls hard.”

~ Marge Piercy

 

Have a Great Sunday! And a great Sunday night viewing the Leonids! 💫
