DAVID BENNER'S MOSS GARDEN FEATURED IN THE NYT
This time last year, I posted about a tour my wife and I took of David Benner's wonderful moss garden.

Well, this year my friend Jancee Dunn has written an article in the NY Times about Mr. Benner, who, according to Jancee (who emailed me this morning) was as cranky as you'd hope a dedicated naturalist would be.

Pity that we won't be able to reserve a slot on his tours (I'm sure they're booked solid now), but that's all right, since we're making our own moss garden.

If I could pull off an outdoor moss garden in Dallas, I'd join you in this. Unfortunately, we're sufficiently lacking in rainfall for it to work. However, when the rains do come, the little patches where the mosses grow when they haven't been dormant are absolutely stunning, especially early in the morning.
