WOW,I haven't been feeling well,the rain does nothing good for me & we have had it's over 16 inches of rain since Dec. I come back to find all this information.I am now going to go link surfing.I'm still in bed but i'm sitting up & have "some" control of my arms & hands so please excuse any mistakes i make typing.
Lynn,(i think said it) you have a point mislabeling or just the fact that people call the same plants by so many different names.The person who wrote the book i seen the semp in & got the name from was using mostly her own plants.I will look up the name you gave & see what it looks like.
I just bought a new printer but haven't really had the chance to figure out how to do anything besides print on it.I am going to ask my daughter or try myself to scan the 2 pictures in the book into my laptop
but i am not mechanically inclined and see if anyone ID's them any differently than they are labeled in the book.
Greg,Thank you for the nice words but my yard is one big mess!
It's been over 10 yrs since anyone lived here & there was nothing much done to the yard then.We have been here 3 yrs. in May. and we spent half of that totally gutting & remodeling the home,which still isn't completed.
Outside there were so many tree's that grass wouldn't even grow,the whole place was under a canopy of tree limbs & that's no exaggeration.
We started by letting some sun into our yard,so i am being careful not to put any beds anywhere unless i know the amount of sun it will get.I need to see how much sun & where the sun is for how long & at what times.The only place i'm sure of is where i'm putting the bed currently
It's sad,between 18-20 tree's had to come down and we only had the ones within a close proximity to the house cut.
