About maricybele

I am interested in edible landscape. I want to fill my yard with beautiful unusual vegetables, fruits, berries, flowers and herbs. My grandfather had the most fabulous simple garden and It is my goal to have a similar edible landscaped yard. There is nothing like fresh organic fruits or vegetables.

I love collecting plants, seeds, information, compostables. I am a gardening geek.
