Of course all of my rocks are hidden by the garden but tomorrow I'll take a winter picture to show all of each area. I especially like the rocks I have hauled from Great Falls. I work over there ofter the last few years and have brought back about a ton for each trip the last 7 years. I have used them to provide a mowing border around all of my garden beds so no string trimmer needed. All of the beds are bordered and this is just another area of the garden This is where a seed in my compost from a "squmpkin" started growing this summer and climbed the large fir tree. This is a common problem I have with growing giant pumpkins with squash. The tree is on the left of the picture the squash grew up over 9 ' and deposited a strange Hubbard like squmpkin. This area is the Bear Tooth Mountains. See the secret to gardening in Montana. Elk fence. Almost all of it is covered with vines. Primarily Virgina Creeper. The nice thing about growing this is the neighbors side is trimmed continually by the deer and elk.
