You know, I've been all over that site and I can't seem to find a LOCATION for where the event is taking place.

I'm guessing it's at the Sheraton, which is the hotel they're offering special room rates at?

Is anyone here from Cubits going to the convention? My husband and I will be there (not registered, but going to the public events) and would love to meet with anyone from Cubits or DG.

Lovely! I didn't go on the bus tour, but I did visit a couple of the open gardens. I'll post photos.

Keith said this terrace belongs to his neighbor, but that his neighbor didn't mind him planting in it. I wouldn't mind, either!

He commented, "I'm taking over the neighborhood."

A nice view of the terraced yard. I'm not sure I remember this correctly, but I think Keith said it was 3+ acres.

The pond. Hosta gardens in the background (they wrap around the pond and meander further back.)
