Comments (12)Welcome to Garden junk, sistersunnie! You will soon find your way around the garden web forums. To reach our conversations page, go back to the 'Messages'. the second line says 'on topic ....' and then 'switch to conversations'. Anything that is not strictly garden junk should be put on that page. A lot of people forget that, and we lose GJ posts off the last page....See MoreHere it is, my first garden totem :)
Comments (14)That turned out lovely! You should be proud of it. I was going to ask same thing as Jeanne did, did you hit save after you rotated it? I've never had a problem with Photobucket and used it for years. Sometimes when I rotate one there, in my album it still looks sideways till the NEXT time I open it. But its been rotated fine. I actually hit "replace original" instead of "save a copy", not that it matters. So, are you planning your next totem? The darn things are like potato chips.

Comments (12)There are advantages to small pictures, I suppose! I'm not sure why Photobucket is reducing them quite this small...something I am undoubtedly doing/not doing. That's allyssum, Mantis. I always intend for it to be all the way around, but haven't made it yet. :) There's still 2/3 of a flat on the driveway. Good intentions. Last year I alternated the small creeping white zinnias with the allysum. Have a couple volunteer zinnias this year. Thank you, Rita. High praise from someone with a wonderful garden and hardscaping I love! It is tough, Kay. I have said for years that I would reduce, but I find now that I must. Oh well. At some point, I have to return my yard to something that someone else can care for...most likely very simple. When the time comes, I hope to move a number of things, but realistically, who knows....See MoreHere's My Yard Tour
Comments (23)Thanks everyone! Judy, killing grass with plastic sheeting takes a couple months minimum in the hottest part of the summer, and needs the fall/winter/spring for the grass to decompose. That's my opinion. It works. I have a ton of pics...I will post a tutorial for you. Frostnyc...I will definitely fill in with some grass, but it will be to break up the planting beds. Socks...yes, my kid helps out some. Her attention span is enough where she gardens with me & helps, but wanders to her swing in time. bkay...definitely hostas will be incorporated into that playhouse landscape. Here's a before and "current" of my back door. It was the first area I worked on. Not heavy on hostas here, but it's one of my favorite transformations. Definitely documents the fact that I started with nothing. 2008 Right when I closed on the house. Spring, but nothing leafed out yet. 2011 Taken just the other day. Sorry about that dumb yellow hose again. I only get that thing out when I'm growing grass seed far away from the house. Gayle...See MoreRelated Professionals
