The city is awash in blooms! As our sweet friend Rita Tebbetts, an Adams Country Master Gardener, likes to say, "Mother Nature didn't get the CoVid memo! Photo Credit: G. Douglas Adams  Last year year, I founded the Natchez International Crepe Myrtle Festival because the extraordinary Crepe Myrtle Blooms of Natchez are worth celebrating! While there’s not a festival with speakers this year, our Committee members have created a perfect experience to Celebrate the Blooms! In coming days, we will proudly offer three self-guided tours to celebrate the blooms. These FREE tours have been developed by Crepe Myrtle Historian and Committee member, Elaine Gemmell:
 10,000 Blooming Trees & Counting! self-guided bloom tours So here's a summer sightseeing trip idea: take in some of the loveliness and deliciousness that Natchez offers and experience the city in a low contact manner! Rita Tebbetts tells us the trees are still moving towards peak season and that the blooms should be pretty possibly even into August!

Sara & Paul Costello experience Maison Chenal Just this weekend, writer & interior decorator Sara Ruffin Costello and her husband and photographer Paul Costello visited my Maison Chenal listing. It was an exquisite outing as so much was in full bloom. The parterre gardens and ancient oaks add much to the 18th century French Creole setting. See my listing here!  Paul generously agreed to share his photos! You might also enjoy Sara's and Paul's instagram posts as their friends excitedly chimed in desirous of purchasing the estate, with lots of entertaining ideas to celebrate together. I've received a few property queries since. The tranquil setting inspires!

          What a delightful morning to wake up and see Hubbs House as the featured home in Sunday's paper!
While the story isn't available with the online news edition, I hope these photos are legible...."This listing would make such a charming and rustic getaway from the hustle & bustle of the city," and I couldn't agree more! Here's the link to more Hubbs House details. Please also reach out to me to learn more. Enjoy the Blooms!  Through this difficult time, I hope you are well. I'm writing to share a few things that lift my spirit in hopes that I can help lift yours. The incomparable beauty of the south, our rich history & culture, phenomenal cuisine, my dear friends and family, and my faith buoy me through challenging times.

It needed to happen! Natchez in full-bloom is sublime!
I founded the event last year, our first year, and along with the help of dedicated Master Gardeners and other volunteers, this Festival came to life. We also honored the memory of Sally Ballard, who planted 2,000 Crepe Myrtles in the year 2000! Natchez has a long history of citizens committed to the beautification of the town - and it shows! This celebration amongst the blooms is a wonderful respite. Read about our SUCCESSFUL DEBUT that story is located on the Press page of this site: scroll down the page to view.
