Thats a VERY important question! I mean, literally half of every day is either going into or coming out of darkness… The vast majority of us work during “business hours”, which means most of our free time is in the evening or at night! 🌙 So, let me ask you again, Do you enjoy your Garden at Night?!
This weekend there is a very Unique Opportunity to get outside, under a Full Moon, and tour some Gorgeous, well lit Gardens! All of them include beautiful Water Features and extensive lighting and Landscaping. Some with Outdoor Kitchens, Fire pits, Patios, Pergolas and more.
After your eyes are opened to this ”Nighttime World”, you will never be the same 😊❤️

As you know, This Saturday evening is the Moonlight Pond Tour. It’s always such a special evening. We time this Garden Tour with the Harvest Moon each Fall and it has became my favorite event that Carters Nursery produces.
This year, we are going to have someone special at the Nursery during the Pond Tour… He will be playing his guitar and singing a few choice selections for all those that wander our gardens this special night 🎸

I LOVE my Waterfalls 24/7! This time of the year about the only time I get out there to enjoy it is in the cooler evening/night hours. It’s so HOT! But that’s ok, I really prefer the night Pond anyway 😊 In fact, in about a months time, we are going to host a Moonlight Pond Tour. It will introduce you to the beauty and Magic of a well lit Aquatic Landscape!
Here’s to some Moonlight Magic 🌝
Next months Full Harvest Moon is Coming!

I’ve been up since early… Drinking coffee and thinking 🤔 Reflecting. Yesterday was a fun, long, laidback day. My wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary in grand fashion… At the river 😊 Floating, fishing, photography – Fun. The only thing I can complain about is we ran out of hours in the day, and the mosquitoes were out in force last night🦟
We want to thank everyone who called, messaged and texted to wish us a Happy Anniversary! ❤️ It was a fun, laid back, perfect day.
“Mosquito is out,
it’s the end of the day;
she’s humming and hunting
her evening away.
Who knows why such hunger
arrives on such wings
at sundown? I guess
it’s the nature of things.”

We were making the rounds last evening, right before dark. Feeding Koi and enjoying the Gardens, when the light sprinkles started ☔️ We finally got in the golf cart to ride up to the house and I stopped for one last look 👀 So I made a little video as the rain really got started… Check it out. Talk about relaxing and a feeling of Zen…
There is nothing like the sound of a Waterfall! Except maybe the sound and, smell of the rain. I believe the word for the smell of fresh rain on the garden soil is called ‘Petrichor’…
“Petrichor : the earthy scent produced when rain falls on dry soil. The word is constructed from Greek petra (πέτρα), “rock”, or petros (πέτρος), “stone”, and īchōr (ἰχώρ), the fluid that flows in the veins of the gods in Greek mythology.”
Combine those two things and … 🧘 Zen
Enjoy your day! 🌞

Yep, it’s #throwbackthursday once again and this memory just popped up in my Facebook feed and provided the perfect inspiration. Aquatic plants are some of my favorites! And this beauty is hard to beat ❤️
Say hello to – Nymphaea ‘Red Flare’
This night-blooming lily produces magnificent magenta red, flowers that are held high above the waters’ surface. These fragrant blooms can stand 7″ to 10″ tall 🤩 Did I mention that they also bloom at night? Yes, the blooms open in late evening and bloom all night and into the early morning. A total show stopper!
Well, that’s my offering for Throwback Thursday!
Have a great evening 😊
