Here are the tuberous begonias, they're still doing well... We seem to have less squirrels this year. For some reason they like to dig in these pots. we have four tuberous begonias, two large indoor ferns, and two small indoor birds nest ferns hanging from the front of the pergola. Everything is doing great.

I have to thank my wonderful DH for all of that space. Three years ago it was a tangle mess of trash and trees that he cleared with a bulldozer and backhoe - you couldn't even walk back there. Janna, the tree on the left is a plum and the one on the right is a peach - I'm not sure of the varieties - I do hope I kept them on file somewhere. Edna, the water feature is simply a $40 round 'pond' that we bought from Lowes last summer to have water enough for the dog to get into on dangerously hot days. It came with a tiny pump which I have not installed yet. I used to keep fish in my horse troughs all of the time and just overflowed them every other day. That is what I do here and it helps water the plants. I left about 4 inches of it sticking up out of the ground, made a collar of plastic, and packed ten bags of gravel around it to the top edge. This way when I over flow it the water runs over the edge, out and away from the path towards the garden, the gravel gives it drainage so the that the clay and mulch on top does not turn into mush. I will put in a small pump eventually but I have to be out of town for a bit and will probably not be able to get to it for a while. The screen porch is actually my garden room that is off the side of DHs shop. This winter I am planning to convert it to a green house - I'm really excited about that! Annie, all of my beds are lasagna beds - I'm too lazy to garden any other way. As far as the circle goes :-) I have this 'thing' about square and pointed edges around the home. I try to avoid them. I know some of you may laugh but it has to do with flow of energy, positive energy and that kind of stuff. PLUS it makes mowing very easy, just curves on the riding mower, no corners to weedeat. Now I'm looking forward to seeing all of YOUR veggies and flowers! :-)

Are any of you still coming here- @gmom74 @onewheeler @Konrad___far_north @kentuck_8b @doris_mi5 @carol_in_california @harryshoe zone6 eastern Pennsylvania @solstice98 @bigack @clairdo2 @socks

We got 4-5 inches. The west side of the state gets way more than us. Snowing now, I think we are supposed to get 1-3 today. DH just left, he has a 2 hour drive to the doctors! I took my friend to doctors yesterday, and that was a 2 hour drive too.
