    Flower Gardens and Lawns.

    Good reminder on the mulch around the trees, thanks! Chatty, you have ditches too? I've got those on two sides of my property. They do take a bit to mow. Bob will go length-wise but I'm too afraid of rolling the mower so I only go up and down. It does take a bit to get them mowed. I'd love to...

    Flower Gardens and Lawns.

    Well ya know Debe I never really worried about it with my hand mower but it was really a pain this past summer with the riding mower. Then it finally occurred to me to adjust the curve. It was a D'oh moment for me too lol! Dora/Garden Goddess

    Flower Gardens and Lawns.

    Hey there Pappa! I know I have had to soften the curves of the existing beds of our new home. We couldn't navigate the curves without coming at it from various angles and that's a pain in a riding mower lol! I'm also planning on mulching around our wee little trees so we don't have to mow right...

    Cutting Garden

    mudpie, What comes to mind are echinechea, rudbeckia. I had a plant in my garden called orphanage plant, they were small white flowers and lasted a long time in a bouquet. I'm trying to think of something for earlier in the year and all I'm coming up with is bulb flowers. Dora/Garden Goddess

    Which perennials and why

    Gardening for wildlife? So I was thinking about the past summer and I had to giggle about your website "gardening for wildlife". About the only thing in my yard is grass as we still managed to attract wildlife. We were out on the deck one morning and our doggie was verrrry interested in this...

    Which perennials and why

    Beautiful chaos is my mantra...in life as well as gardening lol! Having three kids in three years will do that do a person. I like my garden to blend but not hide with its surroundings and sometimes that take me a bit to figure out how to achieve that effect. I like to use easy care perennials...

    lawns, a love hate relationship

    I was gonna say, you mow 2 acres. Holy Moly! Our one acre takes a couple hours but then we have those water directing ditches on two sides of our property that take a bit to mow. I love the Greek lady who just smiles and claps :-) I have some ideas forming in my brain for garden beds (...

    Roses

    I really loved my roses too. My favs are the english roses, I love the cup and saucer shaped ones. We'll see what I can grow here Iowa. I'm almost more concerned about the wind than the cold. I plan on planting a couple this spring and seeing what they do. Dora/Garden Goddess
