Thanks Springfeaver~~~~>

Those pictures are soooooo nice..
I really like the big rock one with the pond and wee~one..

And I LOVE the columbine one..
*they make me think of my granny*

Very nice shade garden...

I really love the daisy looking flowers... I have tons...

This is the rest of my back area any suggestions???

thanks oh yeah and my wisteria is on the arbor has never bloomed yet

How long have you had the wisteria???

I don't grow any, but understand it can take
up to 7 years until they flower....

Some times you can 'shock' them into blooming by digging around the roots a little.

I've had it for 3 years now. Can't wait for it to bloom it should be pretty it is a pink one

I'm gonna have to try that thanks

You can "whack" the trunk with a shovel handle too..
That threatens them, and says, they're in trouble
and they need to bloom..

But, it is normal for them not to bloom for about that long....
*in the meantime... go to one of those dollar stores, and buy a couple flowers, and just stick them in there..
My mom does that for hanging baskets until they bloom.. from the street, it doesn't look bad at all... and from up close, even when you know it,
it's still a pretty flower... and color...

LOL beat it into submission thats what I say.. ohh my goblin flower

I cant buy the fake ones all my neighbors do that. So I take pride in making sure all mine are real... Just to Make them look bad ya know

Beautiful pictures and flowers. I love the pond and would love to put one in my yard, but that will have to wait. I aready enough on my "to do list" for this year and maybe even the next year or two.
