About me: Hey, I'm an old Kansas boy who spends his time in the garden raising whatever will grow. My favorites are tomatoes, corn, and melons, but will try anything that looks interesting. I'm a BIG fan of petunias for the front yard, all colors and variations. Chrysanthemums (wow, I spelled it!!) are also a favorite. I also am an amateur woodworker. In order to support my habits, I am a salesman and finance manager at a new car dealership.

My zone is: z6 SEKS
