Your garden looks wonderful. I love the idea of pink Muhly Grass to hide the TV through the window. I am smitten with Muhly grass and would love to have a stand or two of it, but I don't seem to have enough sun.Morning Glories in Round Rockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07988634441429032483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5028520395539529044.post-67850795447069190052010-11-09T08:08:07.978-06:002010-11-09T08:08:07.978-06:00Layanee, in my case it's more of a 'forget...Layanee, in my case it's more of a 'forget to pull it before it gets to bloom size' method! <br /><br />Pat, I'm delighted to hear I'll get to see you in spring! I'd better get busy out there.<br /><br />Leslie, the plant stands were sold as gazing ball stands but I like my use of them better.<br /><br />MMD, that danged palm tree is a frond in my side. I frequently contemplate asking if I can pay someone to clean it up for them!<br /><br />Gail, there's no telling just what kind of paint/stain I'll end up using on the tree. If I don't like it, I'll start over!<br /><br />Frances, most of my garden art comes from Round Top or Warrenton. I love the spring & fall antiques fairs.<br /><br />Kathy, I think what we call winter probably would feel more like fall to you!<br /><br />Andrea, there are Texas persimmons and Mexican persimmons: the latter has a fuzzier leaf. These have grown quite happily in my garden with very little attention. I think they both started life in 1 gallon pots! Dang, I wanted to go to Peckerwood on Sunday but didn't want to go alone. Why didn't I think to call you? Go with me in spring!Cindy, MCOKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094260737874973235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5028520395539529044.post-24692624111956416372010-11-09T00:03:56.362-06:002010-11-09T00:03:56.362-06:00looking good cindy! love the views, you've obv...looking good cindy! love the views, you've obviously been busy! have fun with your bulbs, they are addictive. glad to hear i'm not the only one who keeps overgrown plants in the ground for the sake of the butterflies... i also want to hear more about your persimmons... especially bc i saw some at peckerwood this weekend and was debating whether they'd do well here in b/cs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5028520395539529044.post-79485236191418471812010-11-08T21:09:20.914-06:002010-11-08T21:09:20.914-06:00You've really been cleaning up!

Don't fret concerning plant sizes, many of us who adore plants sometimes succumb to the 'planting to close' or 'cramming them in' method of planting heretofore called PTC or CTI method. I can almost hear the birds in your garden.Layaneehttp://ledgeandgardens.typepad.com/noreply@blogger.com
