Much appreciated, Kb!!! I like the idea of growing some of our fertilizer, but, at one time, SOMEONE thought using seacane (wild cane, Arundo donax) to control erosion on a steep slope was a good idea. We are still cutting and digging it out! Arrrgh!

Vickie, I’ve noticed Bermuda grass is one of the grasses they are using in low mow blends for Florida. I dream of a small lawn of dwarf mondo with paths threading through it. I dream of it every time I have to work on the lawn mower or pay to have it fixed. . a dwarf mondo lawn is actually do-able in our area, just expensive. I went for a nice walk at the local botanical gardens. Sasquatch must have grabbed the chocolate basil and ran with it before we got to the herb garden. Kay took to much time sniffing all the roses. Next time I’m sneaking in and going directly to the herb garden. BTW, did you get your “breathing stuff”? I’ve heard breathing is kinda important. (Jim)

Photo #2: There were Halloween scarecrows and follies at the Dothan Botanical Garden, but I spotted something really scary! See her egg sack?

Photo #3: I can relate to this scarecrow!
