She said she doesn't like spiders and snakes and that ain't what it takes to please her! An old Jim Stafford/Dolly Parton song goes something like that. :-)

Wanna just hang out?
Great pictures, Josephine. Thanks for posting them. Lou and I enjoyed meeting Mitch and Malichi and Paige and Brian and Griffin for the first time and seeing Josephine and Frank again. The tour of the park was great although it does demonstrate how hard it is to keep a volunteer project going. We especially enjoyed seeing Josephine and Frank's gardens. Wow!!! What an inspiration to us all. And I'm so grateful for your generosity, Josephine. My hillside is going to take a giant leap forward when I get everything planted.
You are welcome Linda, we had a great time too, and thank you for listing all the names, I am so bad about that, I barely remember mine.
Thank God I do remember other things, or I would be in big trouble.
Doesnt Josephine just give and give and give? Such a wonderful lady - you are racking up points up where it counts. My yard to owes a hugh thanks to this wonderful lady. Mitch
Mitch, you are so kind, I happen to think that God put us here to care for each other and to learn from each other. Beleive me I get as much from giving as the one receiving, it gives me so much joy. Sharing is a wonderful thing, that is why our Moms taught it to us early in life.
I can only speak the truth - you have really touched several of us with your wonderful gifts of plants. If there were more people like you the world would be such a better place to live in. Now off to work on the far bed... now called the pecan bed . . . hehehe
I agree.
I'm so happy to hear the Sept gathering will be on a Sunday! Be sure to let me know when you set the date, so I can set the time aside.
A bunch of us down "thisaway" are meeting in San Antonio on Sat, June 18th, to check out a couple of nurseries and visit with each other. Kind of a "mini-roundup".
We did -
Veterans Park Arlington TX Sep 25 starting at 11 am Post here if you are coming and any plants you might have for trade.
We are in the Roundup, just look for Dallas Plant Trade
Thanks Mitch! Will do!
Hey I try to stay on top of things ... do what I can. Hey I am going to have a ton of Iris at the end of June (i know bad time to plant long story short developers are going to rack it all over and I ask and gained permits to go on and gather) I do not have room for all the Iris if you are interested I would love to share with yall local folk - - and maggie if ya want some let me know and I will stick them back. They are all mixed up purples and yellows no white that I saw but they were not all in bloom.
It was nice getting together with y'all last week! Putting names with faces is nice. I'm sorry I missed going to Josephine's house. I have been wanting to go back and see that slope! Hopefully I'll be able to do that to a slope in my yard. I've already planted a few buttercups, thanks to Josephine. I hope it's cooler the next time we do it!
Mitch, you are very lucky to have such a happy little fellow!
Thanks we know we are really blessed with this little one. They told us we would not bring him home more then once and here he is happy no heath issues and going 90 to nothing.. your boys were great I hope Malachi grows up to be polite and well mannored like them.
I wish mine was as easy going! I threatened a lot on the way. LOL
What ever you did it worked!
Just got back in town and really enjoyed seeing pictures of all of you. :-)
Thank you Terrie, wish you had been with us, but may be in September.
I am planning on it!
Wonderful! we'll talk about it more as it gets closer.
