gloriag ~ Yes, I understand your plant addiction...I, too, and 68, but alas, with no help...sometime Steve will help me like with planting trees or something big and heavy. He has his own prjects during spring and fall, as we like to work outdoors during that time as winter is too colld most of the time and summer is too hot. I also, have a large quantity of seeds...but I tend to let the seedlings dry out. Still over all, I get enough to plant, so it is less expensive, if you don't count all the amendments and other supplies. Still, I would get most of that for the plants anyway. Have you read any books by Ruth Stout? If not, check your library, as the books are writtten in the 50's, but definetely apply to people of our age...LOL!! ☺

newyorkrita ~ waiting for your reply...your gardens are beautiful!

pennfeather ~ ditto!

Pippi21 ~ Yes, I am a bit like you...not so symmetrical in the design department.

This is in front of the house. No flowers yet in the ground, so I keep shrubs there as it went from winter to summer, since we had snowfalls until May!
