Y'all just warm my cockles!
Merci.
And I'll sign off now, all warm and fuzzy!

crittergarden , check the internet. there are plenty of deer resistant plants out there. You can find good alternatives for the stuff they like to eat. You can give your garden, and your confidence a boost.

Rita, nice pictures!! Surely you have been gardening there for decades. Not to mention you order 400 at a time. Hummmm, wish I had your energy!

yes, thank you for pointing that out.
I am somwhat intuned to critter resistant plants....

But tulips are NOT deer repellant!
And there are always some other random beautiful plants 6hat are just deer food!

THE FENCE will save them, I hope.

I'm planting onions, garlic,and rasishes out there, too!

Only started the garden redo in 2001. So only one decade.

I've been planted here since 3004 but didn'6 get started on thegarden until 2005...Mostly,I hsve done what I've done througth scavenge, trades, and only a little bit of buying.

I have a very multilevel lot here. So much of the garden doings were to put in many raised gardens and terraced gardenbeds. I needed the hardscape or I would have very little usuable garden space. It was a challage to get it all figgured out but what I have here would never have all fit on a level lot.

crittergarden, 3004, when was that? I sure hope your new fence works out for you.

Rita, that's incredible, you go girl.

You can tell that it has been dry. Muscari have tiny stems with tiny flowers. they are usually great.

Newyorkrita said:The tulips have started here but there are still daffodils blooming. These first three pictures pictures are in the backyard.









And now off to the right side of the front yard-

GORGEOUS!!!!

Do you know what the tulips are in the last backyard pic that are in the foreground? Beautiful color!

Do you know what the Daffs are that in the first pic of "the right side of the front yard"? Beautiful!

Beautiful display Rita.

Just beautiful.

Here is the east side gardens Lilies are covered with all the containers I could find. I didnt bother to cover lilies with pre - frosted tops from last week.

Jo Ann, that is so beautiful !! You go girl.

The novelty is wearing thin.

Holy Moly,you girls are chatting up a storm..Love it..

700 bulbs ... wowser...3004 only a decade... love you Rita......I always feed my bulbs bonemeal,seems to keep em strong,well what I have...
i d love to expand my terraced gardens but....I doubt that Id ever get it done...Living on a hill,the only flat spots we have are the driveway and the wetlands... after they log out the woods maybe a new bed in the future,but then Id have More issues with the deer...Hmmm..LOL

I'd like to share my most treasured flower unique to only my house..............................
