BelleWood Gardens Gatehouse


Welcome through the gatehouse into BelleWood Gardens. As you take a virtual walk down the Garden Path there are several areas to explore. Here is where you can read all about my garden plants, and other topics of interest. Updated on an irregular basis, I think you will always find it to be interesting.

BelleWood Gardens website is written by a person with additional claims on her time. Pesky weeds need pulling, other people have gardens to be visited. Sometimes imperfections in spelling may be missed (spell checker is especially poor with botanical Latin.) These unintentional errors should be considered part of the inherent character of this blog.

May any person who plagiarizes or uses my photos and / or text without permission find that plant-eating critters devour their garden, and insects chew holes in those leaves that diseases have not covered in mildew and black spot.

Good wishes for happy days in (and out of) your garden
from Judy, the gardener at BelleWood Gardens.


Visit my Garden Diary (like a friendly chat over the back fence,
sharing what's going on in my garden and others that I've been visiting.)

The Library has several rooms. There are Book Reviews, 2021 edition; Book Reviews, 2020 edition; Book Reviews, 2019 edition; Book Reviews, 2018 edition; Book Reviews, 2017 edition. A Reference Section where you can find the titles and brief descriptions of gardening books I think you'll find useful. Previous Book Reviews has information about a few favorites of mine. My Books tells you about books I've authored. My Columns has a selection of informative gardening articles I've written. Links will connect you to sites with useful information. And, since we've never been introduced, My Resume will give you an idea of who I am and what I do.

Enjoy your stroll through BelleWood Gardens. Be sure to come visit again - just like real gardens this one will change. And remember, you can always Contact Me if you have something to say.

I'm glad you stopped by and hope that you will enjoy what you find here.
