Merry Christmas guys! Here in AL, we were a balmy 76 degrees today! Needing a bit of fresh air, I decided to head outside to check on my violas and snapdragons. I noticed that a few of the snapdragons and violas were wilted and dying. I'm wondering if maybe a cold snap got them? The...

Ok, now that I'm sure I have a flower bed full of weeds sprouting rather than petunias, I've hoed out my beds and am trying to decide what to plant. I'm an extremely busy nursing student, wife and mom of 3 littles, and graduation is in MAY! Hooray! With that being said, I was thinking of...

Hi all! Thanks for accepting me into the group! Let me fill you in on what I have going on... I live in North/Central Alabama, pretty much right on the border of zone 7-8.. The weather here has been in the 60's and 70's lately, so of course I wanted to get out and tidy up around the house...
