Michigan people, where are you all from?
Comments (11)We're In Orion township, but our mail goes through Lake Orion's post office. We're transplants from the SoCal and love it here! We've been as far north as Mackinaw but not as far north as you are Elizabeth. A few weekends ago, we took a day drive to the top of the thumb and even in the winter, the lake and sky were beautiful! I agree with imstillcloecat, there's lots to see and sky on a clear night looks like velvet with diamonds sparkling on it....See MoreCow food exported uses more water then all the people combined.
Comments (14)They are always building so how can they say there's no water. All these new units will have kitchens, baths and laundry. What they mean is no water for your landscape. I do like my new high efficiency washer though, it works very well. Animals and their feeds are extremely wasteful. Eating less meat and dairy helps the planet almost as much as cutting down on fossil fuel use. I would rather drink almond milk. At least trees give us some oxygen in return and take in Carbon dioxide....See MoreWhy All The HU-123456789012345...............?
Comments (11)Eden I agree with you as I think most of us do. Its also causing problems because posts started by a HU#### is being removed as spam. Although if people took a second to read the post they would clearly see if its spam. Heck over at the Kitchen Table there's almost a sort of competition to see who flags the most spammers. I tried 4 times a few mornings ago to post about a new movie and all 4 times it was removed in seconds..because people are assuming if its about a movie its spam. Too many people are flag happy and more interested in getting their spam removing numbers up that they are not taking time to read. The HU is causing problems for everyone...the nameless, and those with names...hopefully Houzz will address this but in the meantime I hope people will take the time to be sure its spam they are flagging for removal. Heck I have a name but I'm still being flagged....See MoreNeed help from all those great color/design people here please
Comments (48)Your new property is gorgeous and you obviously have a great eye as your current house is adorable. I love the entire thing and can see how you wouldn't want to obstruct the view in any way. It's great that you have a vision and can work towards that step-by step. It's also a wonderful idea to do these outdoor things early on so it can start to establish. I love Marlorena's idea for the balustrades, but they can wait. I do grow Parade and so far so good, but it was just establishing thing after wallowing in a pot. I'm a terrible pot parent. Maybe this would be a good area to try Cl. Clotilde Soupert since it could be semi-protected from the rain. Her foliage does well for me as does VMemory's. although she's still small in a pot. One vigorous healthy climber I grow is Gold Blush. Very thorny as is Parade. Probably similar to Quicksilver. Setina is a sweetheart of a rose generally. I missed her fall flush so no pics in the ground. She spent the summer getting used to the ground, but I'll look for pics of her in a pot. Another is Cl.Caroline Testout. Since that was my original plan, I'd try them all in varying shades of pink, punctuated with some darker climbers and prepare to swoon. Although not pink, Ghislaine de Feligonde is rock-solid in a difficult place......RVR? sells PInk GDF. Don't forget Peggy Martin and Cl. Pink Pet. PP is a power house of a bloomer for me with impeccable foliage so I would hope her climbing sport is the same. I'm looking forward to Felix LeClerc, but too soon to comment. Since I know you love fragrance give Cl. LaFrance and Nahema a chance. The only climbers I've had for any length of time are New Dawn and Viking Queen. Everyone knows how I feel about those two, but ND may be too vigorous as a climber with her long, long laterals. I always feel she's best and easiest to manage on a fence. Perhaps on your someday balustrades! : )) P.S. Don't forget Blossomtime. You're in a zone where you can probably plant Archduke Charles at her feet to echo her gorgeous opening buds....See Morecatbuilder
