SO happy to find a community of helpful and friendly folks! I've been a backyard grower for a few years now, and love everything I have learned from this website in the short amount of time I have been able to browse. Can't wait to continue the conversation!

from Central Illinois. Be sure to put your general location, like E Co, or Co Rockies, with your avatar. Visited CO about 40 times--always land in Georgetown, where DH's GM grew up--and the climates are different. Mountains get a lot more rain.I really won't remember where you live once you start posting.

I visit Castle Rock, CO twice a year and daughter is trying backyard gardening. She's gone to half barrels for her Colo wildflowers, a short raised bed about 6 inches high for her Cosmos seed and put in 3 tall raised beds and finally has them producing. Between the clay and small dogs that dig, that's been her successes.
