A Gardeners Forum Forums Members History Forum Life 2005 Hello from North Texas

Hello all I live in DFw area of North Texas been on here about a week decided to give everyone a shout. I raise Hibiscus and roses and anything else that happens by.

Hi JV,

How goes it?

I have family members in Irving and Denton.

Hello all. I live in Northern Virginia, 30 miles west southwest of D.C. I grow most everthing I get my hands on. I grow iris. Bearded- TB, MDB,BB, IB, SDB. I grow Sibs, La's & Japanese. Now I am engrossed in germinating the species iris. Spp versicolor and typholia germinate very well. All others take their good old time, germinating in groups of twos and threes. I am retired so haste is not important.

Hi Albee,

Isn't being retired fun?!

Yes Sue z retirement can be great but unfortunately I was forced to retire by myself as my bride was called home three years ago. but I have flowers and my animals to keep me busy.
As for my expert advise on roses that may be very debatable lol. I am organic just got three Seven Sisters roses gave to me today so I planted them waiting to see what happens.

I am so very sorry to hear of your loss, JV.


You got the rose bushes for free??!!

yes and also a tropicana rose and two belinda delights. I am also on graden web as well as others sometimes people give them to you if you dig them up. there is a lady in ft worth right now wanting some one to come get (if I remember right) 3 rose bushes as she is starting a day care and don't want the kids to get hurt on them. just too far for me to go.

Hi JV. It's nice to meet you. I'm Belle, and am in upstate South Carolina. I spent a year of my life one week in Dallas/ Fort Worth. God bless Texas. LOL.

Hello Albee, I joined yesterday. One of my aunts lives in Hampton, VA. I've been to VA and traveled there quite a bit. In my opinion it's one of the most beautiful states in the United States.

Sue Z.... Helloooooo gal! Good to see you. I wondered it you'd be here!

Hello Belle: Sorry you didn't like my part of Texas. Come back some time we will have to try and make it better for you. I have been to South Carolina many times as I used to drive truck cross country. Keep up the gardening remember to keep it organic.

Man, I sure do wish I was there, JV.

"Sue Z.... Helloooooo gal! Good to see you. I wondered it you'd be here!"


Good to see you here too, Belle.
I have been trying to get over here since Cindy Lou invited me in February.

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!

"i'm just waking up hehehee!!"


LOL! Hi Linda, glad to meet you.

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome. You all make me feel like I'm living on the equator, our low last night was 52 it is 57 now and cold not supposed to get over 72 today. Last saturday was 82.

Hey there JV. I always keep the garden organic. I mulch and use food scraps. The Ruth Stout method.

When I said I spent a year of my life one week in Dallas/Ft. Worth, and God bless Texas, it was a compliment. I loved every single minute of Texas. We just almost ate and drank ourselves to death. I've traveled around TX and the whole state is at the top of the list of my favorite places.

Belle

HAPPY EASTER JV

Happy Easter Sue Z and everyone on Garden Helper.
