Your Mini Garden Gazette

Oh Those Lazy Hazy Daze of Summah!

**Photos May Take a Moment to Load**

Hi ,

I missed you last week! It was one of those days where nothing was coming together easily and as 8pm approached - still nothing was coming together! Arg! So I had to "let it go." But, I'm back and I hope you had a good couple of weeks.

I've got a video-letter for you this week! I had fallen out of the habit of doing them for some reason until a fellow miniature gardener mentioned that she missed seeing me in my videos so - this one is for you Gerry! :o) Check this one out though. I "almost" killed two older dwarf willows but I was able to bring them back from the edge. And, no, I didn't do mouth-to-mouth resuscitation - that would be weird.

We have some new things in the store this week, more made in the USA pond shapes, some great little pots to help you spread some miniature garden joy to generate smiles and giggles. Because that's just how we roll...

Thank you for reading and thank you for being a subscriber!

Whatever you do, make it fun,

Faith, Hope and Water: How to Save a Dying Plant: Click into the picture to see the video! This one was fun to do. Let me know your questions, qualms and concerns about anything gardening in miniature and I'll see if I can make a video for you!

Cute ceramic pots make cute miniature gardens. One of the many perks of miniature gardening is the different pots that you can plant in. Any size/color/shape will do!

New or Back in Stock

Ceramic Pots - More ideas for miniature miniature gardens! Pretty colors and nicely made - comes with a wee saucer too! 2 different colors, 2 different shapes.

Coral-Like Hinoki Cypress - Check out the unusual texture on this Hinoki Cypress and you'll see why it's called 'Coralliformis.' It's perfect for your miniature seascape or underwater garden!

Lagoon Pond - Made in the USA! The real-deal! Can you tell I'm tickled PINK to have these in stock.

Classic Granite Pond - The classic granite pond in miniature! Bury it in-ground or use it on top of a matching patio for a formal look. Big enough to put a fountainhead in too!

Tote Bags! - New merchandise for the hobby! See our very first designs from our new store. Email us a photo of you wearing/using the shirts/bags in public and we'll send you a discount code for 25% off!

Yay! Our own pond designs are BAAACCCK!! Made in the USA Lagoon Pond is the real-deal: a true miniature replica of typical pond liners. Awesome.

For those who have followed me and know that the Georgetown Home and Garden ponds were part of my "line" of miniature accessories that I designed for them a few years ago. But they added the different edges of the ponds to fit into their Fiddlehead theme and rimmed them with faux bricks and faux stones that took AWAY from the realism, faded fast and just looked stagnant and really fake. Thankfully they cancelled my contract with them (but yet they are STILL selling the same pond designs which is so not right.)

We're very grateful to have these in stock now!! I can now get back to the realistic garden miniatures that really bring the enchantment to the miniature garden easily because they are, indeed, true replicas of the full-sized idea. Authenticity rules.

Shipping News: All shipping costs are checked by Steve and we refund any savings promptly. WHY? Because of our wide range of unique inventory: we ship tiny miniatures, heavy patio materials and living plants, sometimes the automatic shipping calculator "packs" the order in multiple boxes which costs more. And Steve can pack better than any online shipping calculator can - if we can save you money on shipping, we will. TwoGreenThumbs.com
