“I like the greeness between the stepping stones. I would love to have thyme growing between the stones.”
“taken to implement the stepping stones. It looks very natural and astetically pleasing. I do wonder what the plants are amongst the stones. Are they maintaining the look by mowing over the the stones or is the stone area regulated by the mature height of the plantings? Almost looks like clover to me”
“that will grow between path stones, like creeping thyme and even moss”
“The little white flowers between stepping stones makes a very casual statement, but adds some texture and color to the walkway.”
“sitting room to the lowest level”

“How to grow your own sweet summer crops.”
“similar to what I want to create in my veggie garden area.”
“Plant herbs outside the box to keep weeds down and deal with the dirt.”
“Place to relax alonfside the growing harvest.”
“allowed to go wild. Weathered pots, iron pieces and wicker were casually added to decorate the space and to provide spots to relax and enjoy it.”
“Adding iron structures to the potager gives a more formal look while still meeting plants' climbing needs.”
“may need to rearrange existing plantings or even redesign hardscaped areas to get your edibles in the best spot.”

“it's hard to beat. In addition to its bodacious gold, forsythia (USDA Hardiness Zones 5-9) grows just about anywhere, looks great en masse, and makes a perfect informal screen or hedge at 4-8 ft. tall and wide. Its cons: It grows to monstrous proportions in a few short years, and beyond spring, it's a super”
“Forsythia, grows just about anywhere, looks great en masse, and makes a perfect informal screen or hedge at 4-8 ft. tall and wide. Its cons: It grows to monstrous proportions in a few short years, and beyond spring, it's a super snooze.”
“Add a burst of yellow to the garden with forsythia, witch hazel, winter jasmine”
“Forsythia: Retina-searing though it may be, I dare you not to love forsythia in spring. It's not my favorite by a long shot, but”

“Roses are heavy feeders, needing a lot of nutrients to keep growing and blooming. Container-grown roses will need a consistent diet of quality soil and nutrients, so get them off to a good start when planting.
Mix together in equal amounts:
• Potting soil
• Garden”
“container to the top edge with soil, as it will settle down when watered.
• Water in thoroughly.”

“perfect to add to planter- put finger 1 inch down if dry water - ferterlizer ever two weeks and bring in on cold days - winter. in spring apply a tablespoon of epsom salts at the base of each plant for healthy foliage. fish emulsion is great for blooms. keep containers 2 feet apart for good air circulation”

“You want to grow your favorites, but then there are all those other options out there, both in new varieties and unusual offerings. How difficult will it be to add just a couple more plants? About midsummer, when the squash is threatening to take over the garden, you’ve made enough jam to feed an army,”
“willing to take your fresh vegetable offerings, you realize that you may have overdone it.”
“Vegetables. Lots of vegetable seeds can be sown: lima beans, snap beans, beets, chard, okra, radishes and summer squash. Wait until late April to sow seeds for corn, cucumbers, eggplant and pumpkin.”
“March to sow chard, collards, corn, cucumbers, pumpkins, summer squash, black-eyed peas and endive. Flowers like sunflowers, gomphrena, marigold, moon vine, nicotiana and morning glory can be planted this month as well — sow more seeds than you think you might want, as you can always thin them as they”
