Top soil we got several years go had bindweed in it, terrible stuff, one piece of root an inch long can grow 1700 inches in one season.

I really enjoyed looking at the pictures.<br />I used to love going on garden tours but since I decided for running my own business, it seems to get harder and harder on me finding the time for going on garden tours. Garden tours are always a great way to find new inspirations and to see how other gardeners grow their plants, how they design and decorate their gardens.<br />Happy Gardening<br />Paula JoPJ | Home and Garden Decorhttp://cleanstar-homeandgardenworld.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-42873515246771636162011-06-13T14:00:57.657-05:002011-06-13T14:00:57.657-05:00Sue I loved the tour thanks for sharing.

There are quite a few tours going on around here at the moment, just about one every weekend, I think! Last weekend I thought about going on one, but then decided to stay home and work on my own. I once saw some beer's breeches in flower, a huge plant, so I know how impressive those flowers are.<br /><br />As far as the intimidation factor, I second what Grace said. The important thing is that you get joy from working in your own garden.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323262555906240701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-33536719531901338922011-06-12T13:14:25.212-05:002011-06-12T13:14:25.212-05:00Sue,

...Wow-- <br />all of the gardens are so lush and green. <br />This year we planted two vegetable gardens and I've got established plants around the house. <br />I curious whether the 'hostas' and shade lovers would do well on the North Side of my house? and how they would fair through a Texas winter. I'd probably have to build cold frames to keep them alive. <br />As for now...everything is dead and dry. We have a burn ban in effect due to the hi possibility of fire. We are cautioned NOT to burn! <br />I'm thinking that my plans may need to exchange my front dry dusty yard for native texas grasses and rock and succulents. This will cut down on the watering and the rock will hold the dust down! <br /><br />PatPatricia @ 9th and Denverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786692442689958889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-2797836127256793472011-06-12T08:31:13.462-05:002011-06-12T08:31:13.462-05:00I had no idea there was another tour!

I gasp when I enter some of them, because from the street, you have no idea often. So many pretty flowers/plants that I have never seen before - thank you for sharing. And those water falls!!! I just had to stay home and enjoy the weather and pulled a few weeds.<br /><br />When we were kids, for a school project we hatched eggs and kept 2 chickens. We gave them chick feed when they were young, then switched to a different feed and started getting eggs almost on a daily basis. We had them until a cat got past our black Lab and killed them one night.Judy ~ Through My Garden Windowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09422098670491653213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-1740174211116609772011-06-12T06:46:28.838-05:002011-06-12T06:46:28.838-05:00i want some bears breeches, an interesting plant. ...i want some bears breeches, an interesting plant.
