this is my black trellis room we built from free builders signs and bought the latice-this sits in my memory garden-some day i will get a small bistro for inside!

Martha, your black trellis room looks suspiciously like a field of sunflowers. LOL. It sounds really interesting and I love what you did with the bamboo screen.

oooooooooopsy wrong pic! lol here it is!!!

Get some vines going on that and you will have yourself a really nice hidey hole, sit back have a glass of wine, put your feet up and listen to the sunflowers grow.

Pretty cool! I liked all three pics! (Sure would love to grow sunflowers like you do, too!)

shoe those arent my sunflowers-the are on the highway-its or a store that sells them for the birds!


Molly I have several kinds of clematis from last yrs co-op growing on the back side and a new dawn climbing rose on the south side. Behind the back in the spring i have HUGE blue delpheniums. Of course I have night scented stock mixed in everywhere around he trellis.

Wow! That wall is quite a find! How come I never get so lucky??

Love the black trellis too. Looks great, Dori!

Great finds!!!

I am with you Poppy, I never
find anything nice. If I do see
something good, DH is with me
& will not stop. He just does not understand the "Junk Thing".

That's a nice find, it looks like you've made a nice pleasant spot to rest from your labors.

The bamboo trellis is really beautiful.

i love that! cant wait to have a house so i can cement things in the ground ;) what a great find!

What a blessing. I'm so glad you have it now.

I love both also! I love weird things for my garden. How does the bamboo do in the rain?

Yes the bamboo thingy is beautiful but I also wondered how it would weather. Do you coat it with polyurethane once a year?

When I saw that bamboo I showed it to my DH and ORDERED him to go dumpster diving for me!!!LOL

art n garden, you start collecting things now and you'll have to get a house and yard for all your new stuff. lol
crested i'm laughin aloud, put that man to work and get him dumpster diving. tell him i said so. lol right.
lol you guys crack me up. thanks.

i just showed my dh that and he said "find out where they live and we'll go and cut it down and put it in our yard out front."....lol....i told him i knew where you lived and he said "if they find it missing one morning, they'll know we have it". lol of course i couldn't leave without saying hello so that would kinda ruin that. hugggggs girlfriend

Great dumpster find! I'm an old hand at dumpster diving myself. I have a fancy metal footboard in my border to fence off my stargazers from the evil bunnies.
