Ken Druse and I both love leaves, and so do the naughty furbearing herbivores who have been visiting our gardens with a vengeance this season—but that's another story. Today's topic is leaves to love from the gardener's point of view, not the woodchucks’ or the rabbits.’

Ken Druse, friend of many years, and author and photographer of 20 garden books, including “The New Shade Garden” and “Making More Plants,” and most recently, “The Scentual Garden” about fragrance, is back to talk about what's getting our gardens through the midseason slump: leaves, whether big and bold or fine-textured, and in a range of colors, too.
