Here are a couple of pictures of what happens when your willing to trade seeds with anyone.


This is my new Birdbath flower Bed. The birdbath was part found and part purchased. So it only cost me 19 dollars for the whole thing and it is concrete so it will last a long time. The compost that went into it took me three years of raking and turning to get. The bed took a season to get all of the weeds out so that the plants when I put them in would have a fighting chance. The rocks took that same season to gather from the back yard and put around the bed as an edging. The grass you see comming up is from a packet of Celosia seeds that I traded for on another website. Dumb me!

What a shame...people can be so cruel. You could spray weed killer and wait til next year to replant.

Actually it is thick enough that I'm going to cut it into squares and move it to some of my bare spots. The soil is plenty loose enough that I can get plenty of it to create a nice little bed for it to grow on. I've got plenty of bare spots to work on. I'm determined to make lemonade aren't I?
