You...Hello Donna, Thank you, and thank you, again! Your new header photo is beautiful, I just sat for a bit and looked at it. I enjoyed your recent post about leaves, and some very pretty examples. <br /><br />Oh, there you are, Esther! I enjoyed your comment so much. I feel as though we have had a friendly little chat. Now, the truth is, sometimes I bite off more than I can chew, as the old saying goes. I'm always coming up with ideas that I nowadays cannot possibly install myself. I get ideas, then point and instruct others what to do and how to do it. Even so, sometimes I forgot something... this summer I forgot to have them place the burlap fabric on the new daylily bed under the mulch to hold the sloping surface soil in place. Maybe we can retro fit... maybe. <br /><br />Hmmm, I wonder about that thyme problem in your garden. I'm wondering, because I use so much limestone, and it grows so well with it, if your soil is too acidic - or maybe too damp? These plants have sharp drainage. I had to do that because we have a lot of rain. It surely has done well in that "trough-like" little bed.<br /><br />I hope the vertical wheel survives storms, too, because I have run out of ideas of what to do if it doesn't. I didn't want it set into cement, because I think that would cause a galvanic reaction between the two that would eat up the metal. There is so much about such things that I do not know. I do know that when we moved into this house the seller had covered the drip-pans under the burners of the electrical range with aluminum foil. When I started to replace it with clean, new foil, I discovered the metal drip-pans had turned to ashes! and there was very little there other than aluminum foil.<br /><br />Oh, so <i>that</i> was the oodles of sweet breezes wafting across land and sea! You are more than generous!

Not sure how I will manage a Moonflower vine; I read they can grow to 40 feet. I guess it will have to go up in the crab apple tree at the end of the bed, but that would be a lot of shade for the vine. I found this good link about growing them. <a href="http://www.ehow.com/how_2090734_grow-moonflower-vine.html" rel="nofollow">Moonflower Vine</a>Barbee'https://www.blogger.com/profile/11316077390373348067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683241997705053264.post-68268315429234429102009-10-05T12:54:58.898-04:002009-10-05T12:54:58.898-04:00Oh my gosh!

Nope, it's my place and I do get tired of stakes, labels, and flags, but as you know, they are absolutely necessary in some places. Good luck with your lilies and labels. I have trouble with squirrels and chipmunks pulling mine out and moving them around. I guess the wind helps once the critters pull them out. I hope the deer detour around your place, but if you have trees they are probably watching every move you make.Barbee'https://www.blogger.com/profile/11316077390373348067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683241997705053264.post-71645016515386887732009-10-05T11:08:22.555-04:002009-10-05T11:08:22.555-04:00Barbee, what a wonderful idea.
