Only for my boxers.
Vicarious winter gardening - or Show me da blooms!
Does Pitchfork Man wear hot pink boxers????????
I don't know, but I do. Only for special occasions though.
Well, Valentine's Day is coming up, so think pink! LOL
I love BESV - It was seeing a $60 pot of it trained over a $5 trellis that convinced me i needed to learn to grow things from seeds. One year we bought two $3.00 plants - He planted one in front where I was planning to put a clematis, next to the rose, in rose dirt. The other one went in the back where I keep my "hot" colors. With a trellis, the way it's supposed to be. Wouldn't you know, his took off and bloomed until November practically taking over the garage. Mine made three or four flowers at most

Have red ones for then!
I guess I should have figured that one out! But you've gotta be flexible and bring some spice to life.....can't be too predictable!!
That's when I shave my legs.
Pitchfork Man doesn't shave his legs, does he???
How did the pitch fork man get over here? Yes Victor, there are three different color plants in that container: orange, yellow, and rose!! Eleanor
Thanks Eleanor. Where did you get the original seeds? (Sorry if I missed that above.)
Pitchfork Man is everywhere!!!
Whoever he is.
I hear he is well known around the cell block.......
Never seen him. Last guy in here named Pitchfork Man was called that for a different reason...
I guess it's not easy to rehabilitate a man with a pitchfork who got caught??
Victor - I bought small plants and didn't grow them from seeds. Hmm! Maybe that's why he is in prison - running around with a pitchfork without a shirt on!! Eleanor
Eleanor - I've never seen the other colors for sale as grown plants - I can't remember... I have to go to bed. All I know is I WSed a lot of Blushing Susie vine and couldn't ID it when or if it came up. (That's what they sometimes call the colors, Victor.) Darn. x, C
oh Victor, the amount of orange blend roses I got will make my garden a real hot spot this year! I have tons of roses coming and the majority have some orange! can't help it!
well, I will have plenty of salvias and lavender to make it really pretty!
I'll bet it will be gorgeous with those colors together, Kassia! You MUST post some pics when the time comes!
Louise, would you pretty please consider making a relieving Zone Envy Vol. II (how I think of it) - you're taking a while to load there, lady...
xx, Carrie
not a bloom.. but I took this shot out my living room window yesterday... my guess is a woodpecker... but not sure
one more
Onewish - beautiful picks. Love the bird feeders and woodpecker! Eleanor
I have another feeder with the suet holders on the sides.... I think I now know who ripped off the grate and took out the block... I would think if it was a bear or deer the door would have been destroyed.... but it wasn't... out of the 4 hooks.. only one was attached and the door just hanging there... it's all making sense now
Carrie, I'd be more than happy to create Vicarious Winter Gardening 2 if someone can instruct me how to do it! LOL I haven't yet learned hyperlinking in my older age.
Just highlight the web address and copy and paste it, you'll want to do it for both the old and new threads.
Thanks, Deb! Let's hope this works! Please join me here: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/808226/
