30 Roses To Start A Garden With

You mean you still have grass??!!? The shame of it all....... grin Not much. *grin* I also have ten blueberries, tomatoes, an herb garden, seven bird feeders, 2 lilacs, 4 gardenias, bradford pear (whom I'm still debating about removing...), strawberry plants, 2 spirea bushes, a holly, some kind of japanese shrub that I'm always forgetting the name of and chopping the heck out of because it annoys me, boxwood shrubs, alstromeria lilies, stargazer lilies, white asiatic lilies, pansies, pussy willow, burning bush, dwarf crape myrtle, numerous deep purple bearded irises, crocuses, petunias, double tulips, hyacinthes, begonias, fuscia, tuberoses, freesia, honeysuckle, purple butterfly bush, zinnias and other things I am forgetting. Of course, this list does not include the roses, the orchids and african violets inside along with the other houseplants, the new rose I just ordered nor all the plants I ordered in the last few days. Oh yeah, we have a quarter of an acre which also has a house on it. *grin* Come on give in, EVerybody has grass..... boring, boring, boring. I think the s.o. might like all the grass gone on one account - my partner swears I'm testing for skills at "precision lawn mowing". *grin* Bob The Enabler. (Guaranteeing a guilt free lifestyle for all who wish it) Oh yeah, just what I need. Someone encouraging me. *grin* Did I mention I also own over 2000 books so the new found passion for gardening (discovered when we bought this house) has also added to the book collection? One must simply own a book on roses, one (or two) on orchids, another on pruning, some more on perennials, a must have on plant identification, etc.... I definitely need encouragement. *laugh* Susan s h simko at duke dot edu |
