It looks terribly picturesque, with the River Birch standing securely over and that lovely fence in the background. I can just imagine all the Tammy Tales that will unfold there. :)Design to Growhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04465463217650696049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6289863235108169853.post-32790222471759406202011-10-03T23:06:09.000-04:002011-10-03T23:06:09.000-04:00Ooo, what fun (clapping hands)!

(chocolate chips with your coffee for breakfast? tsk, tsk.)<br /><br />The best things in the garden are accidents, even accidents of mail order fulfillment. I await a post on how your freebie roses do. I know nothing about these varieties, so I'm anxious to learn how yours perform.Laurriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13657951570419825095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6289863235108169853.post-84618992576826981332011-10-01T23:59:02.505-04:002011-10-01T23:59:02.505-04:00Wow.

One of its common names is Tickseed Coreopsis, others are Beggars Ticks and Bur-Marigold. I think Bidens sounds nicer so I just use that name. lol<br /><br />You asked about the size of my puddle -- it's about 2' x 3' and 2-3" deep. And full of frogs!sweetbayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06248743114944736346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6289863235108169853.post-1925247370425487902011-10-01T23:46:03.788-04:002011-10-01T23:46:03.788-04:00I have seen Peggy in action.

She was one of very few roses that survived a disease that infected a garden in this area that killed dozens of roses. So she's flood and disease resistant and pretty in pink :-) I hope you are rewarded with the rose of your dreams. Oh, BTW, I received the Fred Meyer lilies the other day - searching for the "perfect" place to plant them. It needs to be a DRY spot. Shouldn't be too hard to find a spot like that this year :-) Thanks for the recommendation.Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13862726143727717921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6289863235108169853.post-91915383961786458352011-10-01T22:47:32.471-04:002011-10-01T22:47:32.471-04:00Oh, quick, let me tell you about Ms. Peggy Martin....Oh, quick, let me tell you about Ms. Peggy Martin. (I know from experience...) She will take a large amount of a real fence. No thorns and not much scent. She is a little slow starting (must be putting in those roots that kept her strong during Katrina) but within 3 years you will have a big fence COVERED in canes and blooms. Hope she has elbow room where you planted her.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12140773202280570336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6289863235108169853.post-14251125629918574942011-10-01T22:40:25.262-04:002011-10-01T22:40:25.262-04:00Jennifer@threedogsinagarden
