Flower time!!!
Now that the heat is gone, there is all manner of marigolds, salvia, begonias, imaptiens, exotic annauls like penta's and Kong coleus and torenia, and flowering vinca out there looking for that perfect sunny or shade spot in YOUR yard. Won't you give a good home to a deserving flower???

Who's still gardening?

Since I discovered palstic flowers, life is so much better. No more planting and weeding. Put them in, and they're good forever!

...getting ready to buy more.

My passion flower died. Now I have to find more to replace it.

...in the AM, not PM or evening, nurse them a bit to help them get established, then don't over water!!! Feed every couple of weeks.

In the right of the walkway (you can't see them all from the pic I posted) I have three soft touch evergreen hollie bushes, two purplish bushes, two yellowish greenish bushes, two types of grasses, 5 perinnial flowering thingies... all of which should stay year round.

In this pic you can see the length long flower box we installed to line the other side of the patio... it's full of annuals... All of them are real... So far...
