I've momentarily forgotten what substance you add to a gas tank that results
in enormous damage, and a similar repair bill. Does anyone else remember?

Forget I asked about regrowth. I just looked at the garden. There's
nothing but stubble out there. Boy, now I'm going to the greenhouse and
this is gonna cost him. I'll teach him to mow down my wildflowers!

I have a question: is there any chance that the wildflowers that were
mowed down before their prime might still grow again and bloom this year?
Or did I really lose everything when the Mad Mower struck? If they won't
grow back, I'm going to fix him. I'm going to plant pumpkin vines there
instead. Let's see how he likes looking at THAT all summer.

Giselle (do you think the "accidental" mowing had anything to do with the
fact that he things all perenials are "weeds" and my Tiger Lillies are
just "roadside weeds"?)


For those of you playing along at home, here's what happened:

Well, here's a sad follow-up: my niece's husband mowed down all my
wildflowers yesterday. The ones I started from seed by hauling buckets
of water up from the pond to keep them moist while they were
germinating. The ones that were just getting buds on them. And the ones
I bought from the greenhouse that we've been discussing. Apparently,
being a lover of annuals bought at Walmart, if he doesn't see petunias
and impatients, he just mows it all down.

Oh, yeah, he even zig-zagged over and got my rhubarb. AND he threw some
rocks (that were marking the wildflower boundries) over into the
established garden and crushed my iris' that haven't bloomed yet.

something )
