Thoughts on sustainable landscape design intended to demystify! We all seek the same thing for our gardens: beauty, function and a gentle footprint on the land. One-half practitioner, one-half teacher, one-half low-brow humor. Come on in...

Famous Footwear - Me and Michelle Obama
I'm flattered to be in the same blog post as the First Lady. My new friend, Charlotte (Daffodil Planter) Germane, asked a few garden "rock stars" (I guess I'm a celeb now) to send her a pic and some words about their shoe-du-jour when it comes to the garden. Hands down (or is that feet), it's Crocs for me.
If you've got a minute, pop over for a fun read - also in the line-up are Angela Davis (blogging Gardening In My Rubber Boots), Shawna Coronado, Dianne Benson in her too, too sexy leopard skin footware, and, of course, the First Gardener.

I've read the post at Daffodil Planter and you are the only one with crocks - does it have something to do with the climate you have :)
Ewa: Great to hear from you! Certainly, living in a mild climate makes Crocs more practical, but I just think they're amazingly comfortable. Other than getting dressed up for special occasions, I live in them. Easy to get on, easy to clean, good arch support. Actually, I don't like them for gardening because dirt can easily get in. Be well!
I am a 'croc' girl myself. My first avatar on social network Myspace about five years ago was a shot of my light pink pair.
Heading over to check out the 'celeb' page.
Happy Gardening - you make garden reads super fun!
loved seeing this post- how awesome! just wanted to let your readers know that we have crocs at their local Famous Footwear store!
i was intrigued when searching how flower, crocs and the first lady would all be in one post!
Hey, Billy, didja know that Crocs is a big old contributor to the Republican Party? Yeah. Here's my post about that. http://www.gardenrant.com/my_weblog/2007/06/shoe-update---c.html
Susan: Didn't know. Guess I'm going to be a sell-out, cuz I ain't changing my footwear. Haven't found a better shoe for my tootsies for day to day. When they've lived a good life, I make them into hanging planters of succulents.
sorry, and i'm not fascionista, but those things are so dorky. it doesn't matter who else wears them. aren't they made of some type of plastic, too? sorry, not being more positive here. just someone needs to tell you the truth.
