My garden has many nicknames:

The garden of tough knocks
The garden of “the cobbler’s children have no shoes”
“Snack” ‘n “Sniff”
The garden of trial and error
The garden of pushing the boundaries
The garden of pushing the zones

I have many rooms in my garden:
The party patio in the back
The meditation/reading garden on the south side (pictured)
The entry garden
The dog zone

My garden is constantly changing, constantly evolving. It is a living palette and a work in progress. It is the place I try new things, push boundaries, make mistakes, and learn.

try new things; changing; pushing boundaries; making mistakes; learning—sounds like a rich life!

Right on…IMO, a garden is never “done.” It’s always an evolving project, a living lab.

I have a gardening friend in Washington, going by Karla HappyToes. She raises some amazing brugmansia plants. I’d love to see more pictures of your garden rooms. That is a concept dear to my heart. I see you have a nice lab to help you with your chores.
