Beautiful, Anna! I wasn't aware of a dwarf beauty berry. Mine are huge honking things in the front yard! The Mockingbirds are having a field day stripping them. It's pouring today so I'm hoping the garden will recover from the hot, dry summer we've had. Post some more of your garden pics!

After having the deer decimate my Beauty berries out front, I put 2 of the 5 in back w/in the fence...they appreciated that and have blobs of triple berries and they're big.

BB, I started a cubit today, but barely...I'll figure the details out later...it's GUYTON'S GEMS, I think I put it under hobbies...that was a twister, no one else in jewelry or collecting,,,yet, and of course gardening.

Be sure and join TX Gardening too! Look around, you'll find you can navigate Cubits if you can handle DG. Looking forward to you posting pics of your garden on Show Us Your Garden forum.
