A Gardeners Forum Forums Gardening Reference Gardening in 2006 its a jungle in here!

here are some recent pictures of my crowded garden i can't control myself and keep buying plants. i read on a posting here that kmart had $1.99 perrenials, and decided to drop by and see if ours was having a sale...and they are! i found a place for everything, but think i am maxed out in my little backyard.....i guess i could always buy more containers!

I see lawn so you have plenty of room to expand lol. I am so bad. I've been eyeballing the neighbors patch of weeds lol.

my answer to having excess plants: expand the beds (who needs grass anyway?? )

your gardens look great!

my hubby keeps pointing out that we are probably going to move within the next 2 years, and all this money will go to someone else's garden. I told him it will increase property value, but he seems to think that most folks want more lawn. I think less lawn = less mowing!

yes, more flower beds = less grass to cut!!

you can always take some of these plants with you when you move (bet he didn't think of that, huh? )

hahaha - no he didn't, and you can bet i'm taking plants with me

Yes, I see lots of pretty plants.....it is hard to pass up all those plants we see at the garden places......I'm the same way....just love them...
yeah, you could expand your garden, and I say bah humbug to your husband, :p why not enjoy gardening now, even if you are moving in two years...it's a hobby and we don't give up our hobbies becasue were gonna move in two years....keep gardening and buying all the plants you want...you can take some with you when you leave.....

i agree!! thats what i keep doing, he comes home and lets the dogs out and finds i've expanded almost weekly

he doesn't mind, he just doesn't understand. i think my shade garden is the next to get an addition, maybe this weekend.......
