I have loved nature ever since I can remember. Growing up in Miami, Florida, I had ample opportunity to play outdoors. and play outdoors I did! I loved to climb trees, swim in the ocean and roll down the big grassy hill at our local park, Greynolds Park.
I've always had a fondness for plants, especially flowers. I enjoyed the flowers my mom grew, particularly her brightly colored amaryllis, orange hibiscus and most of all, her fragrant gardenias. I am convinced there is no better fragrance in the world than that of a gardenia!
One year my mom prepared a little garden plot for each of us kids and gave us a variety of seeds to plant in our gardens. I couldn't wait to plant my zinnia seeds and once I did, it felt like Christmas everyday, as those seeds sprouted and grew and blossomed into a rainbow of colors! It was the beginning of a life-long love of gardening for me and "GardenRainbows" got it's start from that little packet of zinnia seeds.
What I bring to the gardening world is love and compassion for all of nature, as well as enthusiasm for creating beautiful and bountiful gardens. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others. The book I've written, "Over The Rainbow ; a gardener's guide to creating light-filled gardens", contains a wealth of information for new and seasoned gardeners alike. I also offer a few classes, such as "Planting for Pollinators", "How to make flower essences" and "Greeting the Faery Realm". These classes are fun, informative and inter-active, as we all have so much to share and learn from each other.
Besides the book and classes, I also have garden essences for sale. You can buy individual essences or you can purchase a personal essence blend made intuitively for you.

I'd love to hear from you and talk gardening, as it's so much fun for me to connect with fellow gardeners!
We can each make a difference in the world and help heal our planet, one beautiful garden and gardener at a time!
