Suzy and Neal thanks for the welcome and kind words. Pictures can be so forgiving with plants and yards but so unforgiving with people! We love our home and yard and have added on to it so much you cannot hardly find the house we bought. the trees you see growing behind the house are in a deep ravine hardly 10 feet out our back door. Our property where we can garden is a pie shape and about an acre and a quarter. I am tempted to start working on the not so deep part of the woods and have a woodland garden but must first find a good source of energy! Age and body are beginning to slow me down.

Neal will you be staying in the same zone? And on moving lilies I have some Madonna lilies that were here when we moved in and I moved them to an area that has become very overgrown (the blue centurea perennial has ruined the bed!!). Can I move these lilies this spring and maybe just lose the blossoms for this year. When I moved them before I was younger and less knowledgeable and just moved them! Knowledge can be a frightening thing. This is a picture of the mess where the lilies are. Woods behind this garden? is where I would like to make the woodland garden.
