Critter in my Veggie Garden
May 18, 2007 | 7:29 PM PST

Just because I live in a busy neighborhood doesn't mean "critters" can't find your garden. I had a beautiful crop of Sweet corn before 'it" go into my garden and dug up half the corn. I am not sure if it's a racoon or possum, but I worked hard the other night and built a fence around it....right after the big rain...so I did the slip and slide all over the place trying to get the fence up...hubby was laughing and was attempting to help, but couldn't quit laughing. Anyway, it's up now and the mr critter can't get in.  I also got my three new roses from SpringHill, what a great bargin, three hybrid tea roses for the price of 1 1/2 in the local garden centers!!! I am was so excited, that i put them in the ground Friday after work. One is White, Robert Kennedy, a lavender and a new one that's red and yellowish colored stripped. I am very excited to see what they product!! I have added butterfly bush and flowers, and a few others. In the next few weeks, I look forward to the blooming of these plants!! If any of you live close to Cedar Park, Tx, get me a fast note and we can go "Garden Center" hunting...Happy planting....Jacque

Looking to find someone, friend, like me, who loves to grow flowers, vegetable garden. I also, as you can see, take many pictures around the area I live in. Would love to share some gardening ideas and tips for growing things in my "neck of the woods", but would love to hear from anyone...watch for new photos..Jacque
