For me I have to add a six sense, the heart or emotion of an experience/thing. Gardening for me is as much about the "sixth sense" as it is about...
Well, I beat all my old "tired"s. :roll: The last two weeks of school can be very exhausting (even though I start preparing in September)....
What a great gift. I admired that orchid when you showed pictures of your mother's garden. Wonderful! :stew1:
I love gardening on rainy days. Miss them, it's been so dry. Thank heavens I have a loving man that doesn't mind doing the house work. We'd be...
Here I sit with dirt under my finger nails in my grubby "garden attire" and thinking I didn't quite finish weeding in the backyard and the front...
Racoons are a problem here too, and I live three blocks from down town. We've had one troop that caught/killed and ate small dogs and cats. :'(...
The large pond was hand dug, over a month. I bought the cement mix by the bag over several months and stored it in a dry place (garage). We...
Great to meet you Chris! Looks like there were a lot of hanging baskets potted up. :-D Enjoy :stew1:

I have never had a problem with mosquito larva either. I have several planters where the plants are pretty much in water only. :-P If you did...
I have grown philodendrens in water (with a little dirt to anchor them) in small containers, large containers and they always look great. They...

We chopped down the old laurel hedge because it had gotten too much to take care of. It looks so barren now, but have gotten to know the...
I love the idea too. It is so fun seeing the world and the personal touches each stewbie brings. I can tell my old camera is going to get a...
The tall blueberries, and huckleberries like acid soil. At least the ones that I grow do. They grow in bogs that dry out in the summer (but are...
I love your coastal town. It has a sense of age and beauty to it. No jail houses with the dignity of yours around here... I am drawn to the...
Thanks Droopy and Stratsmom. After googling those two and looking at all the pics. I agree. It sure is a great little lily. I've moved it...
I was given several bulbs of this lily a couple of years ago. It is earlier and smaller than the stargazer lilies. Doesn't have a fragrance...
Daisybeans hang in there. :-? Our roses always have black spot because of our damp/wet climate. They loose their leaves, but the leaves seem to...
Love your lupines. They are going to give you some really big blooms it looks like. Beautiful!
