BIG plants, for the types I can't find at our garden centers here. But I really have to slow down now .. space is disappearing and I don't want it all to turn into a mass jumble of plants swallowing the garden design up.<br />Hey .. you are doing a great job girl .. so keep going with your instinct !<br />Joy : )CanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523111059655283640.post-22957296469618393782014-01-06T16:18:31.764-05:002014-01-06T16:18:31.764-05:00Darn, no snow for us!

Tomorrow will be so cold that I'm sure that's why they closed the schools. Often kids in the South don't even have coats! Can't have them out catching the bus in 7 degree weather. Plus the buses probably won't start.Leslie's Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08934030162946774736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523111059655283640.post-9773869925790425292014-01-06T16:06:29.198-05:002014-01-06T16:06:29.198-05:00Did you get any snow?

I'm in Georgia, USA. Southeast USA. The only thing I don't like about mail orders is that the size plant you get is so small, but it looks like I should do it anyway. I might try some this year.Leslie's Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08934030162946774736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523111059655283640.post-58592554403516962922014-01-05T17:50:30.168-05:002014-01-05T17:50:30.168-05:00Hello Leslie girl and thank you so much for all th...Hello Leslie girl and thank you so much for all those compliments ! I will have a hard time getting my head through the door pretty soon! haha<br />We have a winter storm warning .. freezing ice type thing again and we don't have comfort food in the house darn it !! haha I am trying to cut down and get some exercise to get in some sort of shape for working in the garden .. BIG sigh !<br />I love that first shot through the trees .. they are amazing and it must be fantastic to see the weather circulate through them !<br />The birds are too sweet .. we don't feed them in the winter .. so many people do in the neighborhood though.<br />I can't figure out if you are Canadian or American ? we have Pikes for landscaping material .. different stones and mulch sort of thing.<br />I'm sorry you don't have a decent garden center or nursery .. have you tried mail order nurseries ? if you are in Canada there are a few good ones I use .. let me know ?<br />Joy CanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523111059655283640.post-4339127498147550882014-01-05T17:01:11.036-05:002014-01-05T17:01:11.036-05:00Love the trees and the cute birds.

She did with my kids too. When they would spend the night she would always take them to the lake to see what was happening! It's a wonderful memory they have!Leslie's Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08934030162946774736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523111059655283640.post-18654164378711463092014-01-05T15:35:03.361-05:002014-01-05T15:35:03.361-05:00I enjoy your blog!
