Even the waves need deadheading. Otherwise they go to seed. When they are ripening the seeds they fail to make nice flowers. They also need LOTS...
I was going to suggest the same thing to Jenny. :stew1: AND it is CHEAP!!! I don't know of any plant's called carolyn anything. Do you? and...
Not much rain here either, except a wave that passed through a week ago and left us with a nice 1/2 soaker. My brother lives about 1/2 hour away...
Netty, this is the variety "Maestro". It has done well for us in the past, but they are really nice this year. Don!!! You are a fortunate man....
Kk, that is a good idea. Have a page dedicated just to the contest so all the entries are in the same spot.

I think it is a yarrow plant and not a fern. If you rub the plant with your fingers it should be fragrant. I would pull it if it was mine. It can...
Not up here. the tomatoes are just going in the ground for most people. (except me, of course :mrgreen: ),but I still don't have any thing of...
