Great post on an amazing garden, hybridizer, and person! I've been lucky enough to visit Springwood a few times and it is all you say and more. I remember looking at the statuary, especially that one of the archangel Michael, and thinking," this puts all garden art I've ever seen in a different league." It is an overwhelming place to visit, to put it mildly. Karol remembered a seedling that I'd admired out of the thousands there when I first visited there in 2007, and when she decided not to register it a couple of years later, she sent it here.
