Next time I go to Huber's Produce Stand--I will ask for more details on just how they do all the hanging bags and WHEN they actually hang them up.

They are all used to me talking about DG.

Shirley,
Are you saying there is NO small version of the BH??????? I thought there was...:o(
And--thanks for your kind words re "The Garden Wakes". I would love to find a place that publishes amateur Poems.....

I have had NO problems with my BH's. I think the one I posted a picture of was moved there only 3 years ago from another bed. It just took off! This one gets full morning sun until about 3PM. Then the sun goes behind my house and it gets bright shade. I think having a really loose, humous-y, composting leaves added to the soil helps. I also feed it 2x a year with Espoma's "Bulb Tone". Early Spring and late Fall--just like all bulbs.

Just for you all.....These are pictures from the Outside garden at my HD. Taken last Sunday. I always walk around and gather a lot of pretty plants to set up on my table.
I brought my camera to work last Sunday, as i am in Garden by my table from 10AM -2PM. to answer questions and talk about the current Clinic Topic. The May topic was---"Annuals and Perennials in your Garden border". Most people are still not used to having someone there that is knowledgeable, but more and more people are stopping by and asking me questions.

Every time my new manager comes out there he says: "I wish I had a camera!" He wants to show my table off to the regional Manager. SO! I thought I would help him promote this idea--as I am out there ONLY as a favor to him! My Sunday garden hours are not even on the schedule! They are "floating hours"--and if some Sunday I cannot make it--no big deal--as I am NOT even scheduled....

This wonderful "foray" back in my "comfort zone" will all end as the garden-planting season ends. Of course, by then I will be off to Latvia (my Land of birth) for the month of July.
