Good morning all. Well, I wimped out and turned on my heat last night for a little while. October 12th... waaaay too early. It is just about 50...
I would if I had some discretionary $$ especially to help me choose colors. Since I don't, I do it myself. I would be more inclined, maybe, to...
Good. I hope she recovers quickly, Glenda.
Wow, I'll bet you did have a blast researching that history. That is very interesting information. I'd love to see your mock orange and oak...
Awww, brave little rose... so pretty too.
Oh dear, MRSA is indeed hard to treat. I hope she is responding well to the antibiotics... Did you have to get preventive treatment at all?
Cap't, I am really fascinated by the history you are sharing. What did you do with the flat rocks you took out of the old basement? Is the...

I wish you the best Maria -- I thought your post was very brave. I hope you love being here as much as I do. This friendly group makes the world...
I like that first pic too -- you know what I like about it? I love the color of the grasses in the foreground, esp in contrast to the background....

This thread gave me a couple of chuckles... As a single gal, I'm pretty much a solo gardener so I have to choose carefully the things I get into...
Beautiful orange butterfly on the marigolds... I agree with several others, it's always fun to see what is going on in other parts. I can almost...
