Toni, no matter how careful or how knowledgeable a gardener is, things happen. I'm so sorry one of these happenings happened to you! I hope it...
Oh, Toni, is that in Fredricksburg? We went there shortly after we moved to Texas, and I went crazy buying herbs! They had such a lovely...
Ronni, of course we will all be hoping, praying, bowing to the different directions for you! Keep us appraised as to your surgery, recovery, and...
The state highway that goes into our nearest town is lined with wildflowers. It is a "no-mow zone" as are most state highways. We now have Mexican...
I picked two Celebrity tomatoes this morning--they are about the size of tennis balls. Now I'm planning dinner around a tomato and basil salad....
Oh, Carolyn, how lovely! Especially those strawberries. Between you and Sjoerd, I think I need to look into planting strawberries next year. Our...
Donna, you have such a wonderful, whimsical garden!
Anightowl, I take most of my "extra" produce to our local food pantry--it's always accepted with little cries of glee! I've even planted extra to...

We picked our first tomato today: [img] First tomato of 2014--Sungold ( photo / image / picture from marlingardener's Garden ) Good things...
Well Jerry, that sure ain't Kansas! We need more photos and more hints. Maybe just more photos . . . .
Sjoerd, you are just bound and determined to lure me into growing strawberries, aren't you? You are succeeding, especially with pictures like this...
Donna, we've always had loads of squash, even before we started keeping bees. Hand-pollinating seems unnecessary to me. There are other...
Wishing you a very Happy Birthday! Treat yourself well today, and enjoy every moment.
I don't know why you aren't happy with the photos--Sandhills are pretty hard to get close to, and you did a great job! We have them here,...
Sjoerd, you are making it very hard for me to resist planting strawberries! I don't need something else to take care of, but those berries of...
Great photos, Toni, and you were probably one of the few visitors who could identify each and every plant!
