I have a real problem ..

Updating this thing .. don't I.

Well.. life is busy in the garden folks .. make no mistake.


But here is a snap of a recent garden visitor .. with more to follow.... later

Sweet Jesus Part Two ...

I said Gopher .. not Golfer!!!

Homey here was just wandering through the backyard ... not sure if she/he is actually a gopher or not .. but since this is Minnesota .. I think it could be!!

Whoops .. nope! Quick check of Wiki says ... Woodchuck!! And .. I did not realize this .. but woodchucks and groundhogs are the same .. so I have my own Punxsutawney Phil! How cool is that?!?!

Sweet Jesus ...

I have been quite remiss in my blogging lately! But the garden has been jumping since I haven't been blogging.

For one thing .. I am posting this outside today in the luxury, sun shaded and bug proof gazebo I put up last Thursday and Friday ...




It's actually quite nice.. it is just alittle too warm to day to truly enjoy it. Hopefully it will cool down soon.

Hum .. then what to do when you run out...

Well.. you decide to go online and find a great Hosta source for exotic Hostas ... like Direct Source Hostas

You can get all sorts of great Hostas from them!!! Like these!!

You'll need to wait for Bloggie's next post to see what they are and where they turn up in the garden!!

Then When You Discover You Bought Dwarves ...

You have to find a place where they won't get lost! So .. I thought why not the Azalea bush!

So from Left to right .. you have Hosta "Little Wonder" .. then the Azalea bush .. then Hosta "Twist of Lime"!! (Sorry blurry .. it's windy today in the garden!!)

Then Ya Need to Plant ....

I had some Hostas already to be planted ....

I have .. from the left to the right.. In back ... Hosta "Craig Ginko" ....

then Hosta "Great Expectations"...

then Hosta "Lancifolia" ....

then Hosta "Allan P. McConnell" - I call him P. Allen though .. after P. Allen Smith the garden guru! ...

then way in back behind the drain pipe .. Hosta "Guacamole"

Begin With The Begginning...

So .. to create a garden I can live in ... I need to make so room .. right??

Lots of room here .... under a lovely pine tree!

Welcome!

Here you will - hopefully - find many pictures of my garden and what I am doing to improve it!
