Keeping a Messy Garden - new shots
I got tired of fiddling with photo galleries, although I'll spend some time in the near future and actually figure them out (I've found that Photoshop's galleries are easier than Front Page's but I still had some problems publishing it to a web page). So, here are the promised photos at pbase. Much easier g http://www.pbase.com/teleburst/new_garden_shots Some global comments: The climber that you see behind Don Juan on the porch is Sombreuil. The green stuff growing in front of the porch is two types of mint - peppermint and spearmint. The large rose in the corner of Felicia's bed (on the left) is Touch of Class. The small violet bloomed plant next to Felicia is an azalea. The porch faces due east. The sun starts to shade Sombreuil between 11:30 and noon. Felicia doesn't get shade until after 1. The large bush next to the "foundation garden" is Sweet Briar Rose. It's in its third season. It now has about open blooms and will be covered in blooms in about a week. I defy *anyone* looking at these shots to describe me as a lawn or garden Nazi g. |

Lots of nice healthy foliage, I like that. Thanks. The roses have done well for 3rd year (of course, the Aloha is far older). I'm lucky to have rich, friable, earthworm righ soil Damn, typing skills are poor today... That should be "earthworm rich"... (unusual for Nashville). I suspect that this is old Indian farming land. This is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Nashville, so it wasn't destroyed by modern-day developers... I've just posted 3 new photos and some captions. You can see how quickly Portland From Glendorra is throwing blooms. The fragrance near the bush is quite heady. And Aloha whould be really popping in the Aloha *will* be really popping... Those don't even look like normal typos... next two weeks. http://www.pbase.com/teleburst/new_garden_shots |
