Welcome home Louise

South Hamilton, MA

I liked the first one on the gargyole page. I have a winged lion about 3 ft. tall. At first I thought it was a griffon, but lion rather than eagle head.

(Ronnie), PA(Zone 6b)

I forgot I had a pic of the dragon I gave my husband a few years ago on father's day.

nice Ronnie... Randy would love it

East Bridgewater, MA


That's a dragon design I've never seen before, and it looks great surrounded by plants.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Cool.

Thomaston, CT

Welcome home, Louise! Glad you had such a great trip home. Everyone can have all my jellybeans! Cannot get one in my mouth! Chocolate is a different story.....If I had larger gardens, and more money, I'd like a griffon in the garden....

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

Welcome back north, Louise.

I like Black jbs, too.

South Hamilton, MA

Love the dragon.

Don't care for the black jb.

Thanks Louise, now I know what a scarlet tanger is. Saw one and couldnt find out what it was.

ohh ohhh - hummingbird was put on the map right over me !!! Feeders been out for a week and I will keep my eyes peeled.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Have not put mine out and have not spotted any.

They do that map and this year compared to last year is about 4 days different.

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

I like the black jb's when eaten mixed with the other colors

Some of the gargoyle styles are a little scary looking for kids, if you have the right garden for it it would look cool.

Peeling potato's in the kitchen and just saw a hummer! I will try to get a pic

Thomaston, CT

Lucky.....none here yet, or tanagers, either.....heard a warbler down at the dam, but no binocs, so no idea!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

How about adjacent beds where gargoyles face fairies?

And who would win the heart of Man?

Eastern Long Island, NY(Zone 7a)

succubi have more fun

East Bridgewater, MA


I had to "Wikipedia" that one, even though I had a fairly good memory of it, but I wanted to make sure.

It was used in one of the greatest episodes of "Frasier"; agent "Bebe Glazer" sweet-talks Frasier into a false sense of confidence during his important contract negotiation, only to realize she had decieved him.

Frasier says to agent Bebe: "You're supposed to bluff THEM, not ME !!!"

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Thanks so much for the hearty welcome home, y'all! ooops....gotta ditch the southern stuff now......Can you believe how many of us like the black JBs? I found that very interesting! I like the cinnamon ones too........ I'm not a gargoyle fan.....they scare me. Victor and fairies, hmmmm, not sure about that mix. lol

oooh, Sherrie - you saw a hummer already???? I've got to get my feeders out. We are south of you, so there must be some stopping by, at least!

Spent the whole day out in the black flies raking up the wet leaves and trimming back the dead stuff so I could rake. We transplanted Hank's heirloom family peony to raise it up so it will bloom more. We put one clump in the back garden where I moved many of my daylilies last year - many of you will remember the garden behind the stone wall where we gathered. That's where we took out all of the ditch lilies and took down the 60-foot black cherry tree with the poison berries that will kill the girls instantly if they bite into the pits. Now we still have to rake up all of those scary pits before we can let the girls outside. I'm a bit overwhelmed by the thousands of wet leaves in all the beds, but I'll get to where I can amend the soil for all the plants at some point.

This is the only thread I've checked at this point, so tonight I'll do some catching up on all the threads I've missed lately.

BA - love that Frasier quote...really fun show! I'm looking forward to seeing Modern Family tonight. We missed it last week...for some strange reason, we couldn't get it in the hotel.
