Garden Story
I like this so much that I am going to print it to save!
Thank you so much for posting this, Misty!
You betcha Lin! I loved it, too, and will keep it in my email! :)
That is SO wonderful!
I think I will print and frame that too :)
How cute!
Thank you for sharing
Peas be with you :)
Being passed on for sure!
LOL You are so welcome! :)
GREAT!
I'm really glad I was checking the homepage to see "latest posts" or I would have missed this one for sure!!!!
I don't think a lot of people pay attention to that. :(
They DON'T!?!?! Wow, that's how I make most my posts. I only "watch" 3 threads so anything else I catch has to be in the "most recent posts."
No, I learned a long time ago that in order to see any new posts I have to hit home and see if it says "yes" next to African Violets and then I know there are some new posts that need me to "infringe" on them *lol*
There is another lovely story on the parking lot and I have been trying to keep it bumped, but I can't keep up!

I had seen the first one and loved it. Thank you, misty
The second one of the Christmas wish I just passed on to everyone in my address box. I warned everyone to get their tissues out.
Thanks again

Misty: I took that little Monrovia test and my style was "Cottage Garden" ....
For some of the questions I really had more than one answer so who knows. I think my Garden Style is pretty ecletic, give me a chair under a tree and I'm happy! Of course I'd prefer the chair to be under a weeping willow tree, or palm tree, or most any tree and surrounded by flowers ..... overlooking a beautiful waterway with butterflies flying about, birds chirping and the sun shining!
How much fun! i took the test and my style was Cottage Garden.
Hey that is cool! You all have the same as what mine was! Although, I had more than one answer as well, and I felt it was a little off for what I really like. Cause it said that I am not much in to tropicals, which we all know that ain't right! LOL
I took the test and it came back as Modern Garden Style. The pictures they are showing with the explanation don't even come close to resembling what my gardens look like though. LOL
Well I hope it was at least fun! :)
Yeah, it was fun. I've been pondering the results and what that site says about Modern Garden Style really does fit my personality to a tee. I just can't figure out why my gardens aren't the neat, orderly, weedless ones shown in the pictures. :)
Well I am glad you enjoyed it, and that it did actually fit you, almost! LOL Weeds, what are weeds? HA HA HA
My weeds are still growing like, well, bad weeds! Even had my Stella's with buds on them today, and my May night Salvia is going strong. So I guess I can't just blame it all on the weeds. :)
Thanks Misty!
I am rustic, wild, and native!
LOL!
Actually, pretty darn true.
Well I think that is cool! :)
