Do you have a digital camera? Show us some photos of your garden and I will show you some of mine as well. The morning glories are taking over my garden and the wild grasses are taking over the rose garden!
Thanks for the flowers. Here's a Betty Boop rosebush for you:

I love the BB rose bush!!
I have flower gardens all around my house. I love them! I seem to have a brown thumb when it comes to rose bushes. I can never get one to survive!!
When I got out to water this evening, I will take some pics of my flowers to share!!

I hate reading instructions.... I usually let my husband figure it out and then give me a lesson on how to use it. He's a good teacher.

There are birds nests everywhere around our place... here's a birds nest in the garden pergola... the gray fuzz is actually 5 baby birds!! They are so cute but they sure are loud when they want to be fed! We have birds everywhere!

I am looking for yellow iris plants... do any of our members have yellow iris? I'd be willing to trade something for yellow iris bulbs. Thank you!!

I don't have any yellow iris bulbs. I do have a flower garden and a vegetable garden though. I hope you are able to find your iris's. I will look around to see if I can find some for you.

I still haven't found any that are reasonably priced anyway. Some of these sellers want too much money for a yellow iris!!
My garden is starting to grow.. how about yours?

I got some kind of new flower in my little round flower garden but I am not sure what it is. I'll have to send you a picture of it. We had some lettuce in our vegetable garden, but nothing else came up.

Send a picture of your new flower, I'd love to see it. The lettuce in my garden is burning up!

Lettuce is not easy to garden.
Can't over/under water.

Hi Sally... sounds like a nice garden. I've got my garden started too and have already harvested a few items... turnips, onions, carrots, lettuce and spinach. The corn is already up and so are the beans, squash, potatoes and squash and watermelon too. Since my fruit trees all froze, I probably won't get any fruit this year. It's been a bad year for us weatherwise.. no rain and lots and lots of wind!

Haha! Of course I can. I just don't anymore. At one time, I did over water it. That's how I perfected the art of growing lettue.
Did you know that...You can also mix lettuce in with your bedding plants?

Hi Sally...how's your garden doing? I hear it's pretty warm back there in Ohio? Did your girls plant the pumpkins yet?
Love and hugs to you and your family!!

I'm growing a few things. I've got several tomato plants as well as beans, bell peppers and squash. The cukes don't seem to want to germinate. I guess I'm going to have to buy plants.
The fruit trees have done well this year for me. The apricot tree is over loaded and there are tons of plums. My grape vines are fruiting for the first year too. I'm very excited about that. The apples are doing well too.

wow I am sooooo jealous LivingB... all my fruit trees froze.. no fruit this year. It's been a struggle with my garden... I guess I just need that good old California weather to have a nice garden!! LOL!!

It's been windy a few times in the last week. A lot of fruit has blown off the trees. It's so annoying because it's not quite ripe yet...:P

I read that in one of my gardening magazines (I belong to a Garden Club) anyway a lady wrote in saying she was tired of losing all her veggies to the critters and the editor suggested she plant enough for herself and her critter friends.. so that's what I do now. Keeps my rabbits happy and me happy too!
