Happy----FINALLY!!!--I have found a place for your big rock!

Where it now sits--I dug up the big, crowded clump of Daffodils. Got lots of bulbs!
I tend to stick bulbs here and there--without much plan--and then they grow so big that they
obliterate everything else. So--I dig....

I put a smaller. flat granite rock on top of yours (they match) and now need to find something
cute to sit on top of these. It will be the first "critter" of any kind in my garden.
I do not have any decorative things here...Not my "thing"...

--This would be the closest thing to it....Your rock.
The bird (I have 3) came from IKEA years ago. They are heavy metal of some kind.
--This "bird" golds my old clump of Phlox up
--And this one sits by my Bird bath--to let the birds know they are welcome...

--I also have these on my front steps. They are BIG chunks of lava rock with a hole in them
that holds 6" clay pots. I usually plant Non Stop Bgonias in there. Got the rocks from my neighbor--
he was going to toss them! NOT with me around!!!!
