I'm working on a post of the front yard where the tree used to be, and there are some plant names refusing to come to my brain.Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-3434469000211944062012-06-22T13:41:22.522-05:002012-06-22T13:41:22.522-05:00What a beautiful place!

Once the trees are brought into the house and warm up, the smell is horrible. They may get a free tree, but they don't want to keep it in the house once they go to the work of getting it in there.Judy ~ Through My Garden Windowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09422098670491653213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-54237269001992104262012-06-18T06:28:13.281-05:002012-06-18T06:28:13.281-05:00What a great garden and a great way to teach kids ...What a great garden and a great way to teach kids about our natural world around us.
