About me: I love all types of gardening and consider myself sort of an almost wishful master gardener! Living in Montana I'm faced with extreme drought in summer (high desert) and some pretty long, nasty winters. But I'm fortunate to have 2 acres of property that I've landscaped, plus a small hobby greenhouse. Every year I make many mistakes, many of them the same mistakes I made last season and will probably be the same ones I'll make next season. I love my yard now and with alot more time, money, sweat, tears....oh the tears....someday....you just wait and see....someday I will have the yard of yards!

My zone is: MT 4/5
