I get really frustrated by a lot of the marketing out there aimed at the home and garden market. Like Scotts radio commercials where the guy who sounds like Mike Myers' dad in "So I Married an Axe Murderer" says clover is stealing nutrients from your lawn. No. No, it's not, you lying sacks. Clover is actually ADDING nitrogen to the soil. But why let the truth get in the way of moving a skid of fert and squirt? Grr. Anyhow, thanks for the comment! SP – glad you like it!

]]> Comment on Understanding Flagstone: Sawcut, Thermaled, and Chiseled Edges by admin http://revolutionarygardens.com/understanding-flagstone-sawcut-thermaled-and-chiseled-edges/#comment-13522 admin Sat, 10 Mar 2012 18:42:03 +0000 http://revolutionarygardens.com/?p=3191#comment-13522 Thanks Clark! This is actually an intermediate step. I still owe my designer some content, at which point you'll see a VERY different look to the site, but on the same framework. As for the flag, I love working with it and I'm looking forward to seeing your take on it. The idea for this post came when I was (once again) emailing a client photos of edge treatments to explain what I was proposing. It occurred to me, why not just have the post so I can link to it AND maybe get a little Google love? Thanks Clark! This is actually an intermediate step.

I have a few similar blog posts in the can for my site. I guess that can happen when you're a dealing with a great material like flagstone. The redesigned site looks great btw!

Look for lots of photos and video this spring. Assuming it doesn't just stay this warm (70 degrees for a high today) till summer, May and June are when the Virginia landscape is at its most photogenic. Thanks!
