This issue of The Root is about pairings: combining the beauty of art with the natural grace and charm of a garden, plants and heat, plants that work together, pests that can also do good work, and even something as simple as mixing soil components in containers to create drainage. Read the August issue of The Root to learn about rock roses, growing green beans, managing chiggers, and a visit to the amazing Getty Center & Villa where art and gardening merge. Our relationship with nature is a creative partnership; be sure to include time for simple enjoyment and contemplation after the work is done!
