yardgranny6's Interests

Garden Zone: 8

Plants in my Garden: iris, lily, angel trumpet, hollyhock, dinner plate hibiscus, texas star hibiscus, hydrangea, ferns, hosta, Rudbeckia, Butterfly bush, yellow,purple, white, Lady Banks Rose, Camellia, Nandina, Pink, White Flocks

Favorite Aspect of Gardening: Wondering in amazement at what the garden can do all its own. Sometimes I agree - sometimes I don't. So the garden and I try our best to work together.

If I'm not in my garden, I can usually be found: at my computer writing or blogging about gardening.

Occupation: retired but working harder than ever.

Merry Christmas Everyone
This is the first year in a long time that Christmas decorations have been put out in my home. It is so nice to see my two Dancing Santas and watch them dance once in a while. My mantle scarf that was purchased some years ago looks to pretty. Too...
