Poppies are budding. Roses are in bloom. Sage is also bloomming with a bunch of iris and the pink geraniums are starting to give a show, Spring is such an easy time for flowers I wish the grass would not be so eager to grow (mow, mow, mow).

Well it's plants that are ours to love.

Being an old treeman turned gardener I have been in the dirt most of my life. Since I killed many trees I guees I am trying to make right by planting.

Yes, I used to cut trees for money... In a way that is good because it was a school for me. I learned to know trees  and life with trees. I enjoy sents, colors and feel of a tree (so, I became a fanatic!)...

Flowers are my second love when it comes to botany. My preference is the English country garden. I am stilll trying to figure out what is a weed. An old gardener told me that a weed is too much of the same.

 Ok. Thanks for the welcome :) it's nice here.

The reason I found this site is because I wanted to find out if some of you had experienced growing parsley i  shade. The result is quite positive and since I have a few seeds they will end up in the only spot I can find. Over the years sunny area of my garden have turned less sunny with all the trees around. Still I like to use parsley in cooking so got to have fresh stuff. Thanks again for the positive in here.
