You need some squirrel hunting cats.

That's a great idea, Phoenix, thanks.

I've got a bunch of garlic cloves to plant anyways. Perhaps I
will do
that with the rest of my bulbs. Or at least some...

7 out of 10 Squirrels like garlic for an appetitzer pleasure before
they
partake of crocus.I would suggest the use of land or trip mines
especially
very tiny bounching bettys.Then again , you might want to think in
terms
of
constructing a medieval like moat around your garden. I do not

that
catapults will be
nessecary especially if said moats are stocked with crocodiles or

You don't think this is a tiny bit over the top... Mostly moats were
built to keep humans out not Squirrels, and the cost involved would
be
such that stocking your whole garden with bulbs for squirrels to eat
for
the next hundred years might be slightly cheaper...
not that I want to put you down or anything, your ideas are very
imaginative... if somewhat insane...

insane? You want effective or you want to skimp on money , penny
pincher?
We are talking crocus here ! This is the best cash crop since Zappa's
Montana dental floss ranch !!!

I bet you have a potato in a jelly jar growing a vine in ya
window, don't ya? Yeah, thought so. Leave the aricultural
advice to us experts and you amatrues stick to raising sea
monkeys and mildew.

That's really beautiful, Shez. Thanks for sharing.

It is rather lovely, that I whole-heartedly admit.
You have a green thumb, for sure, and an eye for

and I bet you have a moat behind that fence.

I think we need your expertise. I've always wanted a moat.

a moat is nothing more than a well that is shaped like a cherrio.
You need to know how deep the underground water level is
or if there are underground springs, etc. Take care, because
some springs are only seasonal .
If you live nearby to salt water that can , also, be a problem,
due to sippage and piranha, being strickly fresh water inhibitants,
will not survive. However, crocodiles have no problem existing in
brackest waters.as long as there is an adequent food supply.
If you live in a area that the underground water level is too deep
to be financially feasible for the construction of your moat , do not
despair. Any reputable swimming pool contractor should be able to
fulfill your needs or if ya'll are the " do it yourself types" , a trip
and
inspection of a Water Theme Park should give you all the information
you will probably need

I hope this has helped

Subject: So what all are people planting this spring?

Squirrels got every single crocus bulb I planted within 24
hours
from
when I
planted them. *******s.

Just a thought, flace, but you might try planting some
Garlic
cloves
on
top of the Crocus. The little buggers might not smell them
with
Garlic
on top. :-)
P

That's a great idea, Phoenix, thanks.

I've got a bunch of garlic cloves to plant anyways. Perhaps I
will do
that with the rest of my bulbs. Or at least some...

7 out of 10 Squirrels like garlic for an appetitzer pleasure
before
they
partake of crocus.I would suggest the use of land or trip mines
especially
very tiny bounching bettys.Then again , you might want to think
in
terms
of
constructing a medieval like moat around your garden. I do not
think
that
catapults will be
nessecary especially if said moats are stocked with crocodiles
or
piranha..
Just be sure to raise your draw-bridge immediately after leaving
your
garden.

you're welcome [ in advance ]

You don't think this is a tiny bit over the top... Mostly moats
were
built to keep humans out not Squirrels, and the cost involved
would
be
such that stocking your whole garden with bulbs for squirrels to
eat
for
the next hundred years might be slightly cheaper...
not that I want to put you down or anything, your ideas are very
imaginative... if somewhat insane...

insane? You want effective or you want to skimp on money , penny
pincher?
We are talking crocus here ! This is the best cash crop since
Zappa's
Montana dental floss ranch !!!

I bet you have a potato in a jelly jar growing a vine in ya
window, don't ya? Yeah, thought so. Leave the aricultural
advice to us experts and you amatrues stick to raising sea
monkeys and mildew.

--little oppie cunningham

Nothing wrong with Insane, who wants to be normal... but most of us
don't have the budget to build a moat around the house, Besides the
neighbours might complain. I do live in a semi-detached house.
I don't grow potato vines on the window sill, I have a greenhouse
for
potato vines in jars... Orchids, and the like.
Ps most gardeners are insane, )

However you can check out the garden below



That's really beautiful, Shez. Thanks for sharing.

Froggie

It is rather lovely, that I whole-heartedly admit.
You have a green thumb, for sure, and an eye for
spacing and color placement.
and I bet you have a moat behind that fence.

GG


Thanks for the kind words. Their is a river not to far away, but I
promise no moat, Not that I would mind, I could lean out of the window
and go fishing If I had a moat.

shez


you're a graceful and nice person. It has been my pleasure to meet you.

GG

Thanks for looking....Its always a pleasure to share your garden with
people who appreciate it.

I think we need your expertise. I've always wanted a moat.


Froggie


You need some squirrel hunting cats.

fact: cats hate water. a moat will also deter
cats as well as the bushy tailed rodents

Ah! but if you put in a dry moat (which is much more maintenance
friendly) you could fill it with cats.

My own aesthetic tastes would dictate that it be filled with komodo
dragons. Difficult to import, but self cleaning and a deterent to
unwelcome guests. If you didn't get enough unwelcome guests, it would
run you broke in goats though.
