Well, Janie, the nice thing about gardeners is that there really aren't too many rules... Yeah, once you get it then you always kinda know what a plant needs to be happy but that's the extent of it...

We make the decisions as to what we want given our planting conditions...

When we left our West Virginia gardens we thought that that we'd never again be so blessed to have what we had there...

But then we started looking at this spot or that spot and next thing ya' know it, we figured some of it out...

But, as you know, gardening is the journey, not the destination... We do it because it feels good to create...

BTW, we have the opposite from you... Our West Virginia garden was created in what you have now and our Virginia garden is what you left behind...

We are just getting out "sun legs" under us...

Wish we could bottle some of it up and send it to you...
