    Are There Gotta Have Annuals?

    Marigolds! Geraniums and impatients as well, didn't know that about the salvia (pest deterent). I love having the long lasting "work horse" annuals in the garden it's nice to have those sudden splashes of color as I go along.

    Vegetables

    But we appreiciate our warm weather more on the great Lakes! Our big pond is what makes things like "Lake effect snow" and "Cooler by the lake" have meaning, pupose. Lake side communities have and extra 2 weeks on each side of the gardening season. And don't forget the Polar Bear Club! Nothing...

    Which perennials and why

    I like to think of mine as 3 season gardens. Something always seems to be coming into bloom as something else is finishing.

    Roses

    lawns, a love hate relationship

    I finally got around to working in the south yard during the summer. I re-did the pathetic little garden area that was there when we moved in 8 years ago. I enlarged that and replanted with perennials and self sowing annuals. I made the "twice as big as it started" vegetable/herb gardens and...

The first couple of years I treated them as disposable.. planted in containers and not...
