Topiary Artworks is a great company whose work has been featured at places like Disney World and Rockefeller Center.

They make everything from large dinosaurs...

to 3" kissing balls...

to this gorgeous, 13" heart wreath!

They have donated this beautiful succulent wreath and I want a fan to win it. Here's how: Become a fan on my Geno's Garden Facebook Fan Page and make a comment on the giveaway post. Winner need not be present to win, but must be able to get their prize in person in Sacramento (or some other acceptable and workable location).

Rose Pruning Demo on Channel 10's Sacramento & Co.

Another good time with Guy and Melissa! The time ran away from us, but you can order a free copy of my special report, 10 Secrets of Having Beautiful Roses in the Sacramento Valley, a Green-friendly Garden Guide from Geno's Garden. Just email me at the link at the bottom of this post.

January at Geno's Garden

Roses
I'll be on the tele Thursday morning (January 14th), showing Melissa and Guy of Channel 10's Sac & Co. the basics of pruning roses!

I'm also going to get busy and have a new post up on this subject by Thursday with more details of rose care, so come by and check it out, and watch the show! (Thursday, Channel 10, 9 - 10 am.)

Succulents
Then, January 25th I'll be giving a talk at the Auburn Garden Club on Succulents. I hope to have a preview copy of Debra Lee Baldwin's, Succulent Container Gardens to show everyone, as well as some show and tell from my collection and from an unnamed (unarranged!) local nursery. Additionally, we'll be making a topiary succulent heart, materials courtesy of Topiary Art Works.

(This one will be part of the plant raffle...plus they're sending us the supplies for the other ... whoohoo!!!)

Hopefully there will be some blogging about winter chores (oh fun) and perhaps an idle hour browsing thru a garden catalog or two, or walking thru the woods. OK, we don't have woods in Sacramento, but maybe we can get over to my favorite garden at William Land Park, Daisy Mah's WPA Rock Garden, a continual source of pleasure and inspiration.
