		<description><![CDATA[This is part three on the evolution of the four-square garden. To start at the beginning, go to part one. The trouble with gardens is that plants grow. That is a good thing, of course, but no garden stands still, and before you know it is overgrown. I think the problem with the four-square garden [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The four-square garden was gloriously romantic in its heyday. In spring, clumps of tulips and daffodils and Euphorbia polychroma would start the show. The early bloomers were followed by peonies, which bloomed at same time as my favorite ‘Purple Sensation’ alliums. We also planted Siberian iris and used English lavender, plus catmint and ladies mantle [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is the first of a three-part series about our four-square garden. Most gardens aren’t planned: they just evolve with the seasons and their owners’ growing confidence. The layout of this garden was actually planned: first it was a vegetable garden, but then we transformed it into a perennial garden, which it was for a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pruning our trees and shrubs has been the big job to get done in March. When the trees have no leaves in late winter or early spring &#8212; that&#8217;s the best time to prune because you really can see the branch structure, and it&#8217;s so much easier to get in between the branches with pruning [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Eco-lawn can be left unmowed for about a month, and indeed some advocates suggest not mowing it at all. So why not leave it to grow taller and more meadow-like? Our city friends often wonder why we country folks cut so much grass. We experimented with this about five years ago when we let a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Eco-lawn is billed as &#8220;the ultimate low maintenance, drought tolerant lawn.&#8221; It&#8217;s said to require no fertilizers or chemicals and it&#8217;s supposed to be less vulnerable to grubs. And you can reduce your mowing time or not mow at all. Does Eco-lawn live up to its billing? Well, judging from our experience since it was [...]]]></description>
