Hi!

I'm 29, and have been married for nine years with one husband, one adorable (of course!) daughter, and two kitties: Puddy Jo and Goodie.

We've just bought our first house, and moved to the Riverside/Corona area from south Orange County.
I've gone from a condo with container gardening to a 1/4 acre lot. Any other So Cal residents will recognize the tradeoff!

I've mainly planted antique roses and Austins.
Here is what I've planted so far:
