Very new to gardening, lots of questions.
Comments (17)Rolacoy, sounds like you have been very busy. i would also love to see photos. Be sure and document your progress with lots of pics, or you will wish you did. I know what you mean about perennials, it seems such a waste to buy annuals over and over. You were given lots of good plant ideas above. I am trying winter sowing for the first time this yr, so I cant say anything about how its doing for me, but I have read many many comments about its success in the winter sow forum. It would be a good way to fill up large areas very quickly. I participated in a round robin this winter and got loads of seeds to sow. Another thing to think about while researching, is finding plants that will bloom during the different seasons.At first I had mostly spring bloomers, then July on, I had very little bloom. I am trying to fix that. As someone mentioned above, plant flowers according to their light requirements. If you plant something that needs full sun, in your shady areas, its not going to be happy. I think some heucheras, and hostas would be great fillers for the shady areas.Probably the best thing you can do is continue to hang around gardenweb and ask questions. Skim old posts for pics. Good luck, what you have started already sounds fantastic. tammy...See MoreHelp! I just can't decide, Long w/lots of pics
Comments (28)I've been going back and forth on your post for awhile now just looking and thinking. I have oak cabinets too and we changed out the hardware to ORB. I love it. I hear your pain on painting the cabinets! DH is the same way but has always been fine w/ me painting our cabinets. We've just never gotten around to it though. Leaving the cabinets as is until you cajole your DH into painting I think that white is a good decision for table and chairs. But Let me toss this idea out to you: Should you eventually paint your cabinets would you consider painting your table base in a pale shade of grey/ blue? I suggest this just because I think that those curtains need something a little 'weighty' in the kitchen w/ the addition of the brown sectional being in the other room. Or maybe not. I forgot that you were painting the wals green and I don't feel like erasing everything that I just typed!...See MoreNeed help squeezing in a powder room in new build design!
Comments (42)@ Kyla YES. You can, I took a little bit of the bedroom walk in closet, you don't need a "hall " to the bedroom, and it is VERY easy to stack a washer/dryer when using front load appliances I can not perfect it. I could if it could be printed to scale, but I'm not inclined to make a trip to the vast copier, nor to scale this to perfection. Pleas. Go BACK to your arch, the one you paid, , and challenge him to do a better job. Nobody with this size home doesn't have a dedicated powder room. It's a bad value, whether YOU think you need it or anyone else here thinks "it's just fine" to get by without one. A horse and buggy can get you anywhere within reason. Doesn't mean you would not prefer the automobile....See MoreFurniture placement in small living room with a lot of openings
Comments (19)NO one is "being harsh" or "ridicule" and yes, we all have suggested the tv over the FP in regards to furniture placement. You are reaming on us because you're not getting the answer you want. Take a deep breath, show this thread to your daughter once you are calm. We all understand how frustrating demo is. But you need to accept you are not going to get many posters here who is going to go along with the idea of covering a FP for "furniture arrangement." You asked and we politely answered....See Moreanele_gw
