At the same time trying to check a few things off on my long list of improvement projects. I'm always trying to tweak things to make them look better. I wish they sold Agastache at our Lowes. I swing by the rescue table also. In fact some of my best plants have come from the rescue table. I aways feel good that I have given them their life back. Happy Spring to you and your garden.Rock rose https://www.blogger.com/profile/00348711150803587369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6037617908705103615.post-22114967549328942772013-02-24T04:33:59.076-08:002013-02-24T04:33:59.076-08:00My biggest garden project right now has been keepi...My biggest garden project right now has been keeping the mulch in the beds. The rain keeps floating it out and there has been a flock of Robins here for a couple of weeks not scratching it out everywhere too! I've given up for the time being trying to keep it all in the beds. I should be planning more right now too. <br /> Randyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03840964031964028578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6037617908705103615.post-77780344829882958902013-02-22T08:24:30.430-08:002013-02-22T08:24:30.430-08:00I'm really lucky to have my stepfather make me...I'm really lucky to have my stepfather make me an arbor as a birthday gift. Probably one of my most favorite gifts of all time. I need to get a picture up. Things are in the way here too, and so many weeds. My weeds are a little out of control. Maybe next weekend I'll dedicate the weekend to mulching and weeding.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10021681734078075329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6037617908705103615.post-39254985167943556912013-02-22T08:23:15.651-08:002013-02-22T08:23:15.651-08:00I'll really be looking forward to your new gar...I'll really be looking forward to your new gardens, and thanks for the recommendations for blueberries.

Argh!<br /><br />Thanks for the tips about where to find good trellises. I'd still like to design my own, it's just difficult to find the time to make them.

I have an extremely unprofitable something or other in my backyard too, though I don't know if I could call it a farm of any sort. Well, possibly chickweed. It's too bad we can't eat magnolia cones. There are a lot of those right now.Dariciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03139602899939762309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6037617908705103615.post-86489303409684441962013-02-08T17:40:21.101-08:002013-02-08T17:40:21.101-08:00The last couple winters I spent totally obsessed a...The last couple winters I spent totally obsessed about planning new gardening beds and such! I am a little sad that my garden planning has ground to a halt with moving and whatnot. I have several blueberry bushes; I think I have Brightwell, Climax, and Premier. They are growing quite well, but still young so I haven't gotten many blueberries yet (so far the birds have gotten most of them). Such a great addition to the garden! I hear you about squeezing plants in. I have (had) a rather small lot, so I only have so much sun and so much shade. And of course, I spend most of my time here amending the dirt! Enjoy planning!Indiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14004102653896371835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6037617908705103615.post-28472572844259859362013-02-04T17:22:18.874-08:002013-02-04T17:22:18.874-08:00Oh I know parlsey stays outside fine, I let mine g...Oh I know parlsey stays outside fine, I let mine go to seed the first year, and I think I'm running an extremely unprofitable parsley farm in my backyard now.

The secret is to grow perennials so you only have to plant once unless you want to move them. I plant very few annuals.<br /><br />Bulbs are great for your area, ornamental grasses too. Some plants like parsley should stay outside in zone 7 just fine.<br /><br />Shirleyhttp://rockoakdeer.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6037617908705103615.post-90743430810843878772013-01-26T13:46:06.950-08:002013-01-26T13:46:06.950-08:00ugh, I hear you.

I got all my pruning done though.
