I am thrifty when buying annuals. I used to start from seeds, but found a garden center with $1.49 wave petunias! Fuchsias are my fav annual, and those are pricy here. I only get a couple. I used to over winter my fuchsia's, but they make a royal mess, get leggy and flower sparingly the following years. It's just not worth aurorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04731529798233954353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-689872777639220238.post-44540910314861690622019-06-21T21:13:52.302-05:002019-06-21T21:13:52.302-05:00Looking good!

Roses and day lilies seem to thrive well here. <br />I'm quite surprised that mosquitoes aren't a big issue here considering there is a pond on the property. But maybe because the water level fluctuates so much they don't use it as a breeding ground? We also have a lot of swallows who like to Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15454110560303310751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-689872777639220238.post-8035654285719719652019-06-20T12:09:53.730-05:002019-06-20T12:09:53.730-05:00Sounds yummy!!

Yes, eradicators work best early in the season and should last for 3 months. We have noticed a big difference. We ordered ours online from Valley Vet.<br /><br />Arline, a hillside sound like a great place to put a dumpster aurorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04731529798233954353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-689872777639220238.post-28799982423958719542019-06-19T08:11:52.582-05:002019-06-19T08:11:52.582-05:00You've gotten a lot of work done!

My daughter planted a lot of veggies and fruit in containers this year in the fenced in garden pen. We'll see how it goes and see if she wants to put in raised beds next year. She found a baby bunny last night!

Mine suffered badly when we ran that practice. Now, I’m enjoying my gardening time again. The mosquitoes are awful here, too. I need to buy some of those eradicators. Although, once we dry up they’ll be less of an issue. I’ll file it away for next year. Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14303523299217618526noreply@blogger.com
