i think i just have a bad taste in my mouth about euonymous anything. i had those varigated golden euonymous in the landscaping at the old house and i just hated it. People are probably afraid to buy it because of the similarity to vinca. Hey sometimes a plan just comes together! im glad...

One year, at my old house, my husband and i decided we wanted to plant a hedge of burning bushes...we waited and waited for them to go on sale so we could afford to do it. Well, one day we got a call that they were on a super clearance at the lowes and after a LONG HOT day at the zoo (in...

i really feel like you appreciate collecting plants much more if you have to work at it a bit or if you look for sales. i have such great stories behind some of my plants. If i just went out and bought things full price they wouldnt be as loved. also, sometimes you find the best plants when...

I got these white coneflowers from the Home Depot for $1.25 each. The baptisia was a trade. The lilies I got for two bucks because they were bloomed out (I'm patient). The rose bushes were 6 bucks each. @Nyboy. I'm with you on the clearance plants all the way!!! Please ignore my satellite...

I adore clearance plants. I usually only buy plants if they are clearanced. Unless I get them at wholesale prices. I got to go on a buying trip this spring and my brain went haywire!! I often take hours off of my pay in exchange for plants all the time. I get the family discount. So I'm...

What a great find on the corn! The coons and birds are starting to get into ours. My neighbor plants bodacious corn. It is very tasty! We have been picking bush beans and white half runners until the calling sun is gone each night. I have picked several 5 gallon and 3 gallon buckets. My mom...

I just yanked out the last stubs of Kale this morning. Sometimes I just get tired of looking at it waiting for it to start behaving again. This spring I over planted my wine barrel with kale seeds and had plenty to share with my chickens. When they figured out where it came from they started...

Absolutely stunning collection! I love the troll So cute. I saw a succulent planter made from and old metal bed pan the other day. Hilrious. These plants just really lend themselves to fun! I have some, but I'm crap at overwintering them in my house. I just don't have good lighting inside.

Loved that article. My cats own me. They Try to kill me on a daily basis getting underfoot begging for tuna and a running faucet and they sleep on my head. But they can be so aloof like they are reminding me not to get too attached.
