Our patio, which gives me a view of the backyard flower bed [img] From our back door ( photo / image / picture from marlingardener's Garden )...
Another great photo! We don't have these, so I'm especially glad to see a close-up picture of a bird I'd only see in books. Thank you!
Giant Swallowtails only visit the best gardens. Guess yours qualifies, Toni!
Wishing a very Happy Birthday to a great gardener, and a good friend on the Stew!
Sixty-five? You are just approaching the prime of live (take my word for it, I approached several years ago!). Happy, Happy Birthday Ed!
Well, the rain may have helped, but your magnificent garden with all those blossoms and blooms was the true attraction! Enjoy your bees--you...

Barb, when we lived in upstate NY and had rocks everywhere, I learned from an ex-farmer neighbor to make a 1' deep trench, fill it with sand, and...
The prettiest flower of all is Gracie! What a wonderful day you had, and I admire your unbelievable restraint--most of us (all of us) would have...
