Nope.

Ahhh, Jenni, sorry we are corrupting you so terribly, hang my head in shame!

I wonder just how long ROLA is going to pull weeds, it must not be too terribly cold out in the garden.

maybe

BECKY

Is she pulling weeds or clean-up?

What can I say? Saw an opening and ran with it.

Rola said she had weeds to pull again today. she was working on that some yesterday also. She said she is keeping up with the Lyndas heheh

Lynda has a photo of her garden, and it is something to live up to for sure. check it out on her page! I told her I would come and just water her pots of flowers, just to be there!!

I've been digging up bulbs for the past 2 days and probably have 2 more days of it. For some reason my bulbs multiply like little rabbits and every 5-6 yrs. I dig them up and give over half of them away.

I've been trying to visit everyone's page and finding it slow going. I always seem to miss someone.

ME too, and there are more pages every day to see, also. I am not making it a chore, if i see an interesting comment i go and take a look. I do noeed to visit Waggdy Camel's page though, he puts up such interesting photos of his homeland, and has now added some of the local music. most interesting.

Becky, what kind of bulbs do you have? Daffodils? tulips? something else?

Well done Becky, on your Topp - & you beat this person called topper. Who is this topper anyway - come out Mr or Mrs Topper & show yourself

I had visited before his first YouTube, but did not leave a message. When I first joined, did a lot of that.
Saw his first one and the music was almost hypnotic (sp?).
His pictures are great.

Just popping in for a cuppa..
pulling out weeds. doing a bit of prunning.
Jenni, found lots of escargots for chef to make entree with
Lunch with Lynda and Mary set for next week Thursday at noon..
Topper from Cyberspace - bad luck Becky got TOPP !!

It is really lovely to be able to give friends and new gardeners something from yur garden. I only have containers here, and not as many of those as were I lived before, had much larger decks and porches then. I had aquired and swapped all manner of MINT, I had I imagine 30 different varities, even a chocolate mint that was soooo nice.

I have old-fashioned tulips, crocus, daffodils and old-fashioned hyacinths.

It's too cold in Oz to do gardening - I believe the weeds can just have free run in winter & then I will go & spray them in Spring. We have an easy care garden, no lawn, lots of shrubs & woodchips (so I can just spray the weeds when they appear). There is a photo of my backyard on my flickr photos (it was taken over a year ago & all the shrubs have grown a bit since then)

HI ROLA, gald to have you back! Escargo, oh my, something I am not sure I could get past my lips.

Rola, are you being hostess for this lunch??

Jenni not toooo cold here, beautiful day, should get to about 24C max today

Hi Rola.
I want to start a container herb garden that I can bring for the winter. Does that work or do I have to start over every spring?

bring in.

Jenni, I think I saw your back garden, but I shall look again to be sure.

the only thing I have left from all my mint is lemon balm. It has naturalized itself around and under my deck, as have the woods violets. I had both in containers on the deck, and they seeded themselves hehehe I have HUNDREDS of violets come spring each year.

The lunch is in a Tudor Style Pub in the Elizabethean Village.. near where Lynda lives.
about a 15/20min drive from home.

Hi Becky, Rola, MizT and Jenni!

Rola, sounds like fun. No one on here lives close by me. At least I don't think so.

Hi Stella.

New avatar coutesy of MizT, thanks!

Becky.. Well Gardener Rola says check the Garden Book at your local Library !!!
I have Rosemary, Oregano, Thyme, growing in the ground
Basil died, Parsley given up!!

Becky many herbs can come in each year, others need a bit more care. google it and see what can come in and what cannot. Rosemary should be fine and I mint can die back and come out again, some others can also. Well, at least here, you are colder than i am, so you need to look for your zone. your county agent might suggest what will winter over.

Just popped in before heading to bed. It has been a looong day!

My MizT. You seem to be getting pretty handy at avatars. Looks like a VW bug.

love it Stella,
only 8 hrs 40mins of supervising #2 Driving left before he will get his P Plates and Licence
and I will free from Mum's Taxi Business.

STELLA, that avatar got approved fast! turned out cute too, it was just YOU, had to do it when I saw it heheh

nice chattling Ladies.. need to find more escargots for Chef to make entree with
catch ya later

I do not have a green thumb so cannot contribute, although did plant two rhododendrums (sp?) yesterday. Had to because I got them for mother's day and they were about to die in the pots!

Becky I am having fun fun doing the avatars and smilies. do you need something for an avatar? I do take requests you know.

Bye Rola!

We did have mint. Had to dig it up when we laid a new sidewalk out back. For some reason it did not like being transplanted. Neighbors have basil, so that can be left out. I was thinking of rosemary, fennel and a few others.
