Welcome to Lee Miller: Garden Author Page

 

Welcome to Lee Miller: Garden Author Page. I have been a gardener all my life. As a matter of fact, I have been gardening since the age of five. Having grown up next door to an avid gardener, each day I would venture across the street, and the lady next door (who is like a second mom to me) would take me on a tour of her beautiful flower garden. One day upon my return home, I asked my mother to buy me some pots and seeds. She saw that I had an appreciation for growing things, and that is where the story begins. I had acquired an immediate interest for all things green, and that interest continued to grow all the way into adulthood. Pots of marigolds grown from seed developed into planting trees with my dad and creating gardens on our own property with my mom. As I got older, I gained a greater appreciation for horticulture and eventually became a landscape designer and consultant, a business which I have been involved in for over 25 years. 

With clients and friends always asking me questions about gardening, in 2010 I decided to start my first blog, A Guide to Northeastern Gardening so that I could share my gardening experiences and help others with information on frequently searched topics. The love of writing and sharing my passion with others seemed to be the start of something new. After five years of writing about gardening, and clients and friends suggesting I write a book, I started to put my thoughts on paper and my first publication materialized. Today, I am the author of five books, all written from the heart, and each sharing my knowledge and passion of design and gardening.
