Q: What besides plants and mulch do you have in your garden?
I have lots of rocks that I've hauled home from my favorite glacial outfall
pile. And a few (two, I think) pieces of wonderfully contorted driftwood but not much else. What do you have in yours? Oh, wait, on rainy days I have a large pale green trash can that I put out under the leaky gutters to catch rainfall for use on dry days. |

snakes rat, corn, TX ribbon
skinks anoles fence lizards mediterranean gecko (tons) racoon in brush pile rats mice neighbor cat (not the cats fault) green heron in our live oak tree many birds: finches barn swallows purple martins great horned owl I'm sure I'm leaving something out, but this is a backyard habitat so I love having all of these things. I don't use any pesticides, organic or otherwise and so far, so good. I wrote an article for a Buddhist magazine which may be published. If it is I'll let you know. I should get my website back up to show people how leaving a property alone for three years, an amazing thing happens...it balances out and does very well. |

Rocks, lots of rocks, a cement frog that my daughter adores, a gargoyle or two (love those), a sax playing bee, a ladybug and assortment of geekybeeks. Some trellises too. C |

They are the stars of my garden! I too love rocks and stepping stones. I'm like Lucy Ricardo and I haul tons of rocks whenever we go anywhere. |

Too bad you can't get a set of those gag Chattering Teeth. You could put that there and then ask him if he needs to count his teeth since it appears he planted one. |
