I plant my glads in clumps and then put a tomato cage over them - the
cages are generally useless for tomatoes anyway and a lot less work
than tying all those glads to stakes.

Nowhere does it say that one must use one separate bamboo stake for
each
separate bloom... a couple three stakes with some sort of green
ribbon
can
support many blooms, and will be essentially invisible... much more
aesthetically pleasing in a flower garden than grotesquely hidious
torturous
looking tomato cages.. why would anyone equate beautification with an
iron
maiden..

So I have kinky flowers? OK. I can live with that.

I also grow plants around the outside. You can hardly see the cages,
which are on the small side.

That's known as selective vision, you choose not to see, but be well
assured
that others see them immediately.
Well that's OK then, because I garden for my own pleasure, not other
people's.
Unlike you, obviously.

Nothing wrong with that, I do a lot to please those I care about, unlike
you
not everyone is totally self absorbed... when was the last time you
pleased
anyone other than yourself, probably never. If you have sex like you
garden
you never have sex... you're one of those gals I see in Lowes checkout
with
Coppertop D cells in the super economy pack. LOL- Hide quoted text -


So you work in the Lowes checkout then? So fulfilling.

Nope, I never worked at Lowes, but I shop there just like many others...
perhaps it was at Home Depot where I saw you with a cart load of D cells.
LOL

See what I mean about "selective vision" and "self absorbed"... applies to
you perfectly... none are so blind/narrow minded as those who will not see.
You know darn well you see your wire cages and think they're ugly, you are
just too dishonest to admit it.

First it's Christians, and now black thumbs? You need more than a
name change, Shelly. A brain transplant would be more like it.

And who put you in charge of esthetis, hmmmm?

If it's that, or going home with you, Shelly (AAA), they probably think
it is a good investment. Having trouble with your forest petunia? heh,
heh.

To think thusly it's you who are the bigot, obviously.

And can't you grow up and use an adult name... the childish nickname"Bill"

Bim-batta-boom, bingo. Iiiiiiiit's Shelly :O(

The bane of "wrecked gardens" is back in the flush. Can his sidekick Doo
be far behind.

So from insulting Christianity, you've moved on to sexual innuendo.
What a creep.

What do you think of the basic design?

Ads or no ads?

I'm thinking people here are close to my target audience, being that
garden lovers usually like ponds even if they don't personally have
one.

Thank You,

Your parents must have had high hopes for you to succeed in the

name.

Ah, vintage Shelly.

So care to explain why you are such a jerk and why you post about things
that you know nothing about, or is it just that Shelly has to doo, what
Shelly has to doo? Same Shelly. Same M.O. Same stinking pile of doo.

O.K. Sorry. I acted imprudently. Really Sheldon, I'm sorry.
I don't know what your trouble is but I'm sure there is an answer to it.
You don't want to be the pariah of "wrecked gardens". That's my job ;O)
But, really man, you need to get some help. I ain't dumping on ya. I'm
being straight up with you. See your family doctor (or where you
worship) and discuss your trouble with him/her. Tell him/her you don't
think you have a problem but that you would like a second opinion. We
are all just human and we all hit bad patches. As long as you are trying
to be the best possible person that you can be, no one has the right to
dump on you. I've also found that it doesn't work out too well to post,
after I've had a couple of drinks. I say things, that could have been
better said. Things that just get me into a hole, that I have to crawl
back out of later.

Really, ask for help. Maybe you are just a jerk and there ain't no 12
step programs for jerks. But maybe, just maybe, you can make a change
that you want to make.

Good luck,

William Rose

Reeeally. Must be nice to be the self-proclaimed pariah of w.g.!

Pray tell, how does one attain to this high position? Is this a
concentrated effort or is this something that happens naturally, by
dint of one's personal pariahness?

Enquiring minds need to know. Many aspire to this high position, yet
have not the wherewithal for the accomplishment of such.

I plant in my glads clumps, and then the tomato cage over them - cages are generally useless anyway, a lot less tomatoes all of these glads than tied to stakes.

That's accepted as careful vision, you accept not to see, but be able-bodied assured that others see them immediately. Wire cages are accept in the archetypal veggie garden but are a detractant in a annual bed. Last few years I haven't been replacing my beat out wire amazon cages, bamboo stakes and a brawl of inexpensive sisal braid plan just as well.
