Vashion Island's Award Winning Garden

Hidden away in the trees off any main road is this paradise. This garden has won awards and has been featured in many garden publications, and rightly so. This is our third time here. Each time there is some new addition, or some area has been reworked. It is a joy to visit, and it would be wonderful to live in these surroundings, but it's way too much work for us.
The llamas are content to munch and watch.

  5. sigh.... I am SO covetous right now! I have to remind myself of how much time (and money) a place like that requires. Guess I'l have to content myself with just looking at it.

    Beautiful!!
