Jeanette ~ When you have time, please tell me how you keep your brugs over the winter. Do you plant them out in the spring, or do you set them out in pots? In full sun? I managed to kill all of mine outright last year. I planted them in the ground and they not only did not grow but did not survive. I must know more about them before I get any more. Usually I learn all about a plant before I attempt to grow it, but somehow I messed up on this one.

Mary ~ You have been working quite a bit on your gardening space. I hope that you are not establishing more than you wish to care for as I have. That has been my worst fault as when I clean up one area it is time to move onto the next until it is winter, than start all over again. Amending the soil is one thing, but keeping the weeds out and controlling the varmits is totally another thing. After this last thunderstorm we had, all sorts of weeds popped up everywhere.....mulched or not! Everything requires constant vigilance. That is why I am enjoying this vacation. As much as I love to garden, it requires a lot of consistant effort to make the property beautiful.


Dave ~ I hope that you are being careful lifting that DG. (I take it that you are having perfect weather about now, right?)

Jeanette & Mary ~ I hope that you are having some nice warm fall weather.

Dawn, JB & Sharon ~ I hope that you are having some nice cool fall weather.

Sharon ~ How is Vern doing? Has he pulled out all of his wiring yet?

Linda ~ What has your weather been??



Well, it's time for me to go now. Even on my vacation, you are all in my thoughts. Have fun (but don't overdo it...) in your gardens everyone! I know I am leaving someone out, but don't mean to. Just chime in, OK.

CHEERS!
