hi ladibug... yes i am starting from scratch... we have been out here for 3 years and the entire property was vacant...in those three years all we got planted were about 50 trees.. we have really HOT summers and with no trees around..ugh. it was horrible... but last year i put in my weeping willow driveway , by propogating them from my very first tree planted on the property.. and they are huge compaired to the little stems they started out to be , they were planted in aug 2003... we are also building our small house , so i havent been able for the past several years to really get an idea about a garden or anything... last summer though i learned to do everything myself, the dripper systems , building my own beds.. hubby in passing correcting me or showing me a better easier way of doing something... i just cant wait for him to do it all for me.. he is building our house and doesnt have the time ... but thats ok , i am having a blast doing it (: we have 20 acres and i am working on the front 5 acres , i never realized how hard it is , when there is nothing there... u put in a garden and do all this work, while fantasizing about how beautiful its going to be when in full bloom and when ur done ur so happy but realize how very small it looks in such an open space.. so i just keep going without stopping.. i work outside EVERYDAY ,ALL DAY , unless its raining or i am out shopping for flowers and such , its a non stop project.. and whats funny is , we are in a 'temporary' living situation in an area the house will not be.. on the other side of the front of the property, i am doing all these gardens over here and where the house is gonna be there is NOTHING not even a tree... even the weeping willow driveway leads to where we are now.. lol... i have had people say to me just pic how u want something and do it.. but i cant just do it.. i really have to think of the future, its size and what we may do later ... its hard when u start out with nothing.. but i must say already since dec 2003 i have done sooo much and have made two more gardens the one is done for now it has snap dragons in it and daylilies and all sorts of bulbs and things things... but the one i am working on now is my "hammock garden" that is connected to an area we BBQ ...eventually in the next month they will prob all connect at some point or at least go from one to another , u know what i mean.. anyway here is a pic of the area we are uilding the house.. the horse pen is torn down at the moment.. , the semi truck and trailer is outta here, and the septic tank is now in the ground..lol.. i had to look at that ugly thing for the past two and a half years... thats the driveway that now had weeping willows down it.. thats leading to where we live now.. the bare green area is the area where the house is going, i also have been looking at that ugly storage unit for the past three years but it has all our furniture in it.. this view is fron the top of our hill so some of the area is cut off by the weeds... but as u can see , nothing is there.... lol.. anyway i beter end this post or i may have a book ..lol.. and debi~z i checked the site out.. i didnt see any of those bulbs must all be sold out.. darn!
