Pages 4-7 :gig :lau :gig

:th It is SO good we don't live closer together. Then I would have no plants to lust over (since I would be snitching them from you!). :D

Oh, how could I forget about my brugmansia?! They start out pale yellow and end up a pale peach/apricot....

You know you're a gardener when you cruise the floral department of the grocery store hoping to snatch up some broken plant pieces to take home and root...

Same here for seed trade! My Rose of Sharon was doing great, new growth, the whole 9 yards. Then one day it just croaked....

We don't do watermelons but I would grow some just to try to make wine with it. I have never had watermelon wine tho it certainly sounds delish....

I've got some regular ol' roses that the blooms change color over the course of the bloom life....

That sounds like Udder Cream. Bag Balm actually comes in a little green tin can with red lettering. DH has been trying to push that off on me for the past 11 yrs....lol. Perhaps one day I'll listen. My mom always used to slather her feet down with Vaseline at night then wear socks to bed - her...

Complete the sentence! :D You know you're a gardener when....you're hands are so rough from mixing soil and planting that you don't NEED to hold a tissue! (yes, my hands are clean)

Thanks ya'll. I'm hoping the wood chips can allow us to actually USE the driveway when it rains instead of us slipping, sliding, then getting stuck. Eventually perhaps we can afford some roadbase for an actual driveway but for now all this is costing is my labor.... :) Yes, I am quite tired. I...

Those of you that are just coming along - this is what they looked like 2 months ago: That's why I am SOOO :celebrate :weee :ya

Same with goat poo. Matter of fact I have heard any type of pelleted poo is a slow-burner and perfect for direct application....

I probably won't plant anything else - there are actually 5 plants in there (a couple got mowed once by one of my kids)....or maybe do an arbor over the birdbath with a climbing-something-or-other. The first pic with the big bush and irises is actually a mini rose bush with those irises. At one...

I think they would just need average water but it needs to be well-drained. Irises in general do not like to be soggy....

OMG, two months ago I was for sure they were goners! Now there are tomatoes all over the place. My fear now is an early frost :duc

Well, since we had so much rain and the temps really cooled down, the silly things are FINALLY making heads! As crazy as it is, I kinda like the cauliflower trees - they're kind of exotic and tropical looking :gig

And I'm hiding it from the birds..... Wanna see my secret?? I'm SO excited! :weee :celebrate I doubt it makes it to the house :drool

Gosh, what a GLORIOUS day it has been :coolsun !!! Certainly making up for all those much-needed (and VERY DREARY) days of rain. Our little "wash" is still a minor river that the kids enjoy going out and playing in every evening. Today was very productive for me - I'll be back with pics of...

Irises LOVE sun - the more sun they get, the more blooms you'll get. If you get them moved NOW before winter you could possibly trick them into blooming next year. Otherwise it will be ANOTHER year before they'll bloom.
