Tag: cats in the garden
I read in the Magazine "This Old House" a suggestion to keep cats out of the garden. Coffee grounds even brewed coffee grounds. I have not tried it yet. Tomorrow I will start putting out two days of stored up coffee grounds! After paying $28 for deer urine it would be cheaper for me to go get that coffee from the local dollar store and spread it all over my garden! The cat urine goes all through my house when I open the windows. This is a neighbor's cat. I know coffee will smell better...lol
My iris are sill standing up so proud but ... not a bloom yet. I bought this near black bearded iris 3 years ago. Last year the bloom was just about to open and my then 2 year old granddaughter picked it right off the stalk and brought it to me just so proud. So this year she had been trained to leave the flowers and just smell them..lol
I haven't felt to good the last two days so I have just been piddling around the flower beds. I found I have a lot of ants that I didn't have last year.

Starbuck coffee stores have a free coffee ground give away to gardeners program. Usually there is a basket at the door with 5 pound bags of spent grounds. If not, just ask one of the clerks and they will give you some. You have a great day and happy gardening. Bill Mitchell Last edited by bsmitch on March 27th at 5:52 AM. |

I just planted a Black Gamecock Iris this very day. I hope it will bloom this year. My husband is a U of South Carolina Gamecock fan. It is for him, mostly because I spend so much time in the gardens, I feel guilty. Linda B |
