Central Texas Gardener will tape our garden:
They're coming May 30 around eight o'clock. I told them to bring their bathing
suits. I am really looking forward to this. I am completely anxious and freaking out that my garden looks much better in photo's than it actually is. I know how to grow plants, but designing is not my strongest asset. I let things grow where they grow. I have tall plants in the front of the border, short in back. Trees germinate and are allowed to stay (if appropriate). I now have about 5 pecan trees coming up, waist high. Then there are the palo verde all over, with a mesquite which somehow got started last year and is now way over my head. Does mesquite grow very rapidly the first year? I hope they like what they see. I sure have been working hard on the thing. I am riddled with arthritis and the only time I'm not aching is when I'm covered in soil! The minute I stop, I stiffen up like a rock. They'll have to wheel me out and put me laying down on the ground when I get old, but I will never stop gardening. Victoria |

Making TV is akin to sausage production, so don't sweat too much the individual ingredients. :-) |

I just hope my garden lives up to their expectations from the photos I've sent to Tom at www.soulofthegarden.com I will let everyone know when the show airs. I don't even know if it's going to be on this season or not. V |

Thank you for such kind words. I love to give information if I have it. I get
far more out of it that you do! I have no idea if the show is for this current season or next, but as soon as I know I will tell you.
