Thank you everyone for the compliments. The kids are definately in disguise Jeanne! They are all good kids but I wouldn't compare them to angels (unless they are sleeping) LOL. I won't tell Chris all the nice things you have all said about him (I wouldn't want his head to blow up) :) I have always thought he was pretty good looking too. Even before we got together...Marlene, most of the stepping stones that actually made it to my garden were made by my daughter. The designs are mine but all of the ones I made myself were sold or given as gifts. I kept the ones that the kids made because they mean more to me. Luna Lena, yes the floor is all stained glass. The girls and I did that right after we moved in here almost 3 years ago. (I designed it and the girls helped doing some of the cutting and grinding of the glass. Rosemarie, No I didn't make the glow in the dark gazing ball. I bought that at Meijer.

Robert, I think it is important for people near Talihina to know there is a market there that features locally grown produce. So, thanks for answering my question. If you get in trouble with Admin, refer them to me because you're just answering a question I asked. For all the rest of you, if you're interested in buying or selling at the Talihina Market, I've linked Robert's document below so all you have to do is click on it and read it. Not everyone has endless space (like you do!) to grow everything they want to grow, so for them, buying locally at the market could help them supplement what they can grow in the space they have. Today, Tim was stumbling around the narrow garden paths I have between my wide rows, and I told him that if I had twice the fenced garden space, I'd have wider pathways. Do you know what he had the nerve to say? He said, "no you wouldn't have wider paths, you'd just plant twice as much as you plant now". I couldn't even keep a straight face and insist that I would too have wider paths, because I knew I wouldn't. I knew I'd just have twice as many wide rows, and twice as many narrow paths. I'm guessing we aren't going to double the size of the garden. (sigh) Here is a link that might be useful: Click Here To See Busy1's Link

Oh, how pretty.....you are very talented. When I opened the thread and saw the pkgs, I thought just that, that they were pkgs!! Shirley

Love seeing seedlings selection! I know I can not cull anything... Those second year seedlings, some of them look like fast growers? Like yellows color in the middle left,my eye taken immediately to it. How large Smiling Susan gets? It has all my favorite traits, yellow, cupped, corrugated...
