Comments (17)I will be taking the West side of my house and finishing the bed there. I had to raise the level of the dirt in the fall since there was an immediate drop off of dirt from the foundation. I put in a cinder block wall one row high and put stone veneer on it to make it look acceptable (HOA here). Now, after giving all winter for the dirt to settle and compact I will sod the area and build the bed that will go against the house. This bed already has a weeping evergreen at each corner of the house. I also have some Indian Hawthorne there. I will add: Mystic Beauty Scepter d'Isle and Amadeus Here is the side I will be fixing. I think you can appreciate how steep this side is. Now it will be more leveled and terraced. I ran out of good weather in the fall but hope to have this done the first good warm weekend we have.

Comments (30)Hey girl, just had to come over here again and get my fix of harmony. My mental health is so thirsty! Thank you for that and thank you for the acknowledgement. No bad feelings allowed! I know you are there! :) I've been working on an alledged animal abuse case for a few days or rather I will just say more just being a mom to those working on the alledged animal abuse case. Being Mother Theresa is so draining! Lol! I think all is well with the animal in question but boy, the ruckus that resulted! Good thing I'm a tough old bird! :) I see that you are getting a bit of weather down there. We are through the cold part now and all is warming up again nicely. One morning it was -50C here with the windchill! All my little feathered and furred friends have been sticking really close to the house for food and warmth. I guess they know where to go for some TLC! :) I sure hope your mom and dad are doing ok (and the kitties and kiddies, young and old). I became a great aunt for the 10th time this morning at 6am London time. I think they are naming this little baby girl after my mom who passed when I was very young. And I ramble......cause I really needed a breather from the job.....:) Can't wait for spring! Building blankies and starting seeds will keep me busy till then. Keep the pics coming Celeste! I love it!! Bruce, there is absolutely no hope of you sneaking out of this forum as a non DL addict! You might as well submit to your fate! Lol! :) So excited to see your creations with your personal signature to them! Namaste Ginny...See MoreSummer Projects
Comments (9)I moved to TN at the end of June, so my first summer project was quickly putting in raised beds and planting (which cost me a small fortune but is worth it to me - I have one of 4 completed...) I also have to learn about the new growing parameters here - my plants are going crazy in this humidity! So I am spending a lot of time on garden web... :) Next we are putting in a fence to keep the dogs safe... Window boxes for my herbs and lettuces... Hypertufa pots and steps... Potting bench... etc.... Anyone not busy can come help me with any or all of these projects!! :) lol... Yesterday I went to the summer clinics in Jackson at the UT ag research center... really cool. I am in love with Malabar Spinach now and need to find some NOW to plant in my new bed!! Pat...See MoreAnnKH
