You are, indeed, the most gracious hostess ever. Skylands is incredibly beautiful, yet welcoming and inviting, just like you! We were honored to tour the grounds and get a peek at many of the features that comprise this remarkable property. I especially loved seeing the intricately embroidered linens and irreplaceable china collections. Thank you for sharing your time to treat us to a treasure of an evening. Jan Hi, Martha!

Back to Skylands! About the word 'ornamental', as in rhubarb(or any 'ornamental' for that matter), means, 'not edible'? The spring-fed ponds are really the best way to have a pond, I think...you lucky duck! Oh, and yes!, an amazing yellow! A beautiful lady slipper! The terrace view of Seal Harbor must be a perfect spot to dine alfresco or just sit and watch it all go by. But the 'Reclining Woman'(a beautiful piece of art), kind of rubbed at my funny bone...looks as though she might have just finished tackling a hornbeam! The minx 'really' got to me, too... And/or...the leaded glass looks so inviting behind the bismar palm! Your garden containers and urns are so exceptional! And you're right, the faux cois really works it's own individuality. The only thing missing is a lobster roll! :) Thanks, Martha, for this, and all of your invites! A most 'very special' and personal place you have brought to us! Greetings, again.

Not because she is nude but because she looks afraid like she is warding off an attacker. I dont think i could have her in my garden. I dont like the nude female.

Everything looks fantastic. Gyurme did another outstanding job of photographing the wonderful results of their work. Let's seen now, how many beautiful coffee table books can you make for us to enjoy from all of your photos as well as those from crew members?! There's Bedford, Lily Pond, Skylands, all of your animals, your trips to all of the beautiful places you go, etc. Sounds good to me!

I love your show and have enjoyed your magazine when I got a chance to read it over the years. I have used your ideas for crafts and food a many times. I once entered for a chance to win a set of your cookie cutters and sugers in a shop in Dallas Tx.in a beautiful metal box many years ago and guess what I won. That was the most exciting time for me and I still use all of the products. I garden, cook & raise chickens for eggs and have rabbits for pets, love crafts and enjoy travel also.

What a view from that terrace! You take just great care of your homes – you’re so organized and disciplined. I love the urns at the front door and the Australian tree ferns planted in them. Thanks for more pictures, keep them coming! Trish Skylands is my favorite of all of your properties. What a view from that terrace!

I wish I could say the weeds in my drive way were so manageable. I need a container about the size of a front end loader bucket not a bucket the size your employees are using. Congratulations go to Gyurme for the great pictures. Thanks for showing the gardening chores at Skyland. I wish I could say the weeds in my drive way were so manageable.
