pretty, Elizabeth.

that one is in the basement, my windows aren't right for growing them, they do great under lights, I leave them out all summer, in the shade, then they bloom for me

it always amazes me how a lot of plants are tough, I have a 6ft catcus, that I sit in a dark spot in the house give it maybe a cup of water all winter, it does just fine

Elizabeth, did you see my bog garden I made?
I've put in two now.

I did see it, it's neat, I had a small pond, using a 35gal pot with no drainage, everything I put in there someone wanted to buy when I had my plant sales, so I gave up on it, pull the pond liner out & filled it in, yours looks really nice
hard work paying off
Elizabeth

Barnesville (Charle, GA(Zone 8b)

I want to pl;at those black EE in back of it
next year. It is going to be so pretty.

it sounds like it, would you believe, I have lived here for 4yrs, & the city decides we need new sidewalks, I have all those nice evergreens out there, I just know they will tear them up, when they redo the sidewalk, if they do I will have to redo all that I have out there even that nice mum, maybe I should do a black garden out there
Elizabeth

Barnesville (Charle, GA(Zone 8b)

They will take some; if there is a sidewalk going thru.
Is your town growing? I guess it is good if they put it in.
gives you a reason to do a new garden, doesn't it?

Dee

Barnesville (Charle, GA(Zone 8b)

Is it a mandevilla, Elizabeth.
It looks like one to me.
Charleen

when they resurface the streets, they redo sidewalks, doesn't matter if they need it or not, yes our town is growing, the only problem they attach it to your taxes, I had planned on redoing the plants out there anyway, I want to put a bradford pear out by the curb, you are so lucky to live on a farm, no city sidewalks
Elizabeth

Hamilton, OH

Dee & Charlene
it is a madevilla
Elizabeth

Barnesville (Charle, GA(Zone 8b)

Nope, no city streets. But we would have city water but we did not hook up to it.
We use our good old Country water.

It is raining here too. Temp is 59 degrees has not been a bad day. Got some bulbs planted that
one of my gardening friends sent. Going to have so many seeds I don't know where I'm going to

Charleen

it's getting new leaves, we have had at least 3 cold frost, I think because the cement from the sidewalk has helped keep it warm, I am going to cut it back & mulch it heavy, just to see if it makes it through the winter
Elizabeth

Hi you all. Sorry I haven't been here a few days. Been very busy. I saw pictures of beautiful grandchildren and picturen os great garden to become. They are already getting structure. Next year you have a stunning garden Charleen!

And then those beautiful flowers. Mine are not flowering yet but the buds a comming out so it won't take too long. My plants aren't not so big yet.
Charleen they will root easily. If you see someone with such a plant ask for a little piece. Put it in soil and it wil root. O wait. I'll send you a litte piece of mine when I send seeds to you. LOL.

It still didn't freeze here. Only 2 days a little morning frost. But nothing bad. And I heard on the news that it looks like it isn't going to freeze for a month. Temperature is even becoming here this week 18 degrees celcius (64 Fahrenheit!!!)
I also have one brug to bring in. It is blooming now. And it is very light yellow. With big flowers.
Maybe this weekend when I have time left.

Barnesville (Charle, GA(Zone 8b)

It has been nice here too. It is cloudy but the weather is so nice.
You have seen my bog garden yet? I enjoyed doing the step by step.
Next Spring I am going to put Brugs in a couple of the gardens.
I still have one blooming outside. It is in a pot but on south side of
house so it should make it thru the winter.
I am really looking forward to Spring.
It is always nice to hear from you, Jori.
