I love plants that have flowers!!! Single layer of petals, bells, trumpets, or daisy like blossoms are my favorites! I love pinks, shades of blue, salmon, and orange. I was a new gardener about 8 years ago but stopped completely because of physical problems in 1999. I recently got motivated again in March this year and feel like I am learning all over again. I love to learn about gardening organically and I am really into container gardening now. Vines are a new interest on mine. I'm fasinated by flowers that you can dry and keep indoors for months, and I am constantly having to go back to my Sunset Western Gardening book for references. I admire those who have a long history of gardening and a library of knowledge to share with others. I have the best husband in the world who enjoys gardening with me, and I love teaching and gardening with my 4 beautiful children.
