If only we had more reliably warm evenings - then we could all be embracing the outdoor life at the end of the day.easygardenerhttp://greenforks.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12357501.post-59170988311164242012011-06-13T23:30:12.073+01:002011-06-13T23:30:12.073+01:00Hi Anna,

Nice to see the pros are too!<br /><br />ps. rented the movie last night, "Another year". The frame of the movie is the seasons at the allotment - thought of you!! Sweet movie. Hope your garden is growing well. xNorthern Beauty Seekerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07805215769692200647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12357501.post-87349305149667359272011-06-13T21:39:09.180+01:002011-06-13T21:39:09.180+01:00You could skip the unpronounceable Zalusianskaya a...You could skip the unpronounceable Zalusianskaya and use its common name - drumsticks, for those uniquely shaped petals.

It can be a deeply spiritual experience. This book sounds like a good one with terrific ideas.

Maybe I should get some petunias.

Pleased to hear that you're making use of your library too. It's so sad that lots of libraries are fighting to stay open as they're underused.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.com
