As Mom's Garden Grows.....

Oooh! I like that too! Mom? You like??

Poulsbo, WA(Zone 8a)

I'll take a pic of mine as they look now, so you know what they look like when they sleep and not think they are dead. LOL

Rochester, WA(Zone 7b)

I like them all. Pick any or all of them.

Poulsbo, WA(Zone 8a)

Hey Mom, (Can I call you that?) when Pea comes out, I know where I can get a few for free. And maybe some other prettys for you. If she dosen't keep them. Ha Ha

That would be great. Thanks Tilly

Gate (Rochester), WA(Zone 7b)

I wont keep them (at least not all) :D}
Got a soaker hose today....mom's gonna try it out & see how it goes; shall see
Also got some "Grant's Stump Remover" granules. Need to drill holes in stump, put granules in, then hot water to fill hole. It is suppose to quicken the decomposing of the stump so you can remove it. I will be happy if it just stops it from growing. Mom's taking slips off as they come up for MIL & me. Will drill the holes & fill later ~~ in the fall, when everything goes dormant....
Need to work on the iris's we just got and those to come. Make the Iris Bed (literally). Along with the Daylillies & Hostas to follow........ and, and, and.........

uh oh... Now you have all that work at your place...AND moms place :o) too bad I'm way down here in Cali, or I'd come help! lol!

Gate (Rochester), WA(Zone 7b)

That's what the 'teens / young men' are here for. They know they get to work this weekend, hence the all nighter last night. They'll be tired when I'm done with 'em! lol

Come on up, it's rainy, warm & humid right now

(AnjL) Fremont, CA(Zone 9b)

ugh! forget it! lol! gotta stay cool remember ? lol!


whew! tee hee!

Woodinville, WA(Zone 8b)

So I was out and about today and there's Nandina in gallon pots for sale everywhere. The problem is that most of the labeling is gone and you should make sure you know what size it's going to be. Also, I'm not so sure it'll work in a shady location. Mine is indeed under a fir tree, but the tree's limbed way up and there aren't any other trees close, so the Nandina does get lots of sun.

Fred Meye has lots of garden stuff on sale . . .

Poulsbo, WA(Zone 8a)

Hay a little dumb here. Whats :D} mean? Its not on my list

Sorry, my corny way of making a 'cheesy' smile. I have no list, just make it up as I go along....lol

Gonna have to check Freddy's. Didn't see a lot of 'sales' today - what's left seems to be indoor plants. Didn't look to hard, I was on another mission(s).... This area has no sun, if I remember correctly.

Tilly, We still on for sometime in Sept? Let me know what works best for you - as you can see above, have some more work for 'teen' to help with. Also have a small list going for him at home. Lucky for me, he has his eye on something & needs money. lol. So, I get more than the normal chores out of him.... This is how mom's work. Better pay if honest work & no complaining about extra work OR normal chores.... Win, win for me!

Cheryl? - Check the Farmers markets. Mom and I got tons of plants for $5. A box full, I got 13, I'm not sure how many mom got. All annuals, but most of the one's I got will self seed. The Freddy's up here had some sales, but not that good.

Poulsbo, WA(Zone 8a)

Your funny LOL
Have not had time to figure this out yet, but I do know I will be headed to Carla's as soon as I can get away, She is moving to Arizona and so want to visit her before she leaves, will so miss her as she and I are Kendra spirits. Will let you know Thinking Maybe Sept 6th or 7th.
