Lee Ann, Another wonderful article! You have many Blessings in your life! Your flower gardens are absolutely Beautiful. How wonderful that your Mom lives with you and your DH and that the three of you can garden together! My DH helps out in the yard with me ... I have to have him do the heavy planting. We are complete opposites on what looks "good" though. I, like you enjoy the cottage type gardening ... a mixture of everything, meandering curves of flowers and plants while my DH likes straight lines. All flower beds to him should be square or rectangular ... no in between, no little curve anywhere! We butt heads sometimes when gardening together, maybe I should give him one bed of his own and tell him the rest of the yard is mine to be done my way! LOL. Actually he's very agreeable and with shovel in hand, usually goes along with whatever I decide.

Thank you for giving us a little glimpse into your beautiful gardens! Congrat's to you, your DH and your Mom on a great job!

Lee Ann, what a great article--you're such a good writer. I envy you for having all those willing gardeners in your life, not to mention, in your gardens!! The mental picture of the three of you all pointing in different directions over the location of a plant is making me laugh over and over! I'm the only gardener in my family, though I cannot fault DH for being anything but truly generous about all the time and $$ I devote to my obsession, er, hobby.
May all three of you have a wonderful spring!! (It IS coming, I think.)
