That way when I mow the lawn, it all looks good. I don't have a green thumb. My friends call the row of potted plants in the back yard, "death row."Lawyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04244701212946562926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-57769676205745494922010-05-10T17:30:34.458-05:002010-05-10T17:30:34.458-05:00@Old-NFO,

I thought about posting some pics on my blog and say "name that plant", but that may come across as self serving.Keadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09982258812373127063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-49171709346931893562010-05-10T15:34:39.932-05:002010-05-10T15:34:39.932-05:00Meh- level of neglect... um... 200+ days a year?

Creating a garden is a wonderful thing and it's one of the things I miss most about past lives. Good On Ya, Phlegmmy... for your patience and your beautiful beginning.<br /><br />I had a house in Michigan that was built in the mid-1920s and you can imagine the plantings that came and went with that place over the years. Some of the plants were well-established and thriving, others had to be replaced due to serious neglect, still others were additions I made. I lived there for ten years and the garden/yard was just about "there" when I sold the place...Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.com
