Sheryl not to get off this subject, but I do love you steps. I want to redo my steps and pavers in the front of my house. Is that limestone with brick?

Awww Gina, those are not my steps. The picture you see I posted is one i found off the internet this am while researching herb gardens.

But they are pretty steps aren't they? LOL

Oh I love gardening! I do mostly flowers, but have strawberries, raspberries, and usually do tomatoes too. I have some pics of my flower gardens from last year online at: http://parenthood.dropshots.com/Tinkersweb in case anyone would like to see them!

I have only lived here one full summer, so got started on my perrennial garden just last year. I plan to add to it a bit every year until it's a flowery yard befitting a grandma.

Tink your pictures are beautiful!! We started a perrennial garden about a year after building our house. Every year we take pics and it's amazing how fast everything has grown. (on one side of our house is a long slope. Not very easy or safe to mow if grass was there, so we planted bushes and perrennials instead.)

Thanks Sheryl!

I agree mowing a slope is too much like work. It's also dangerous! I have an uncle who cut his big toe off when his mower rolled back over his foot.

I bet your slope looks prettier with flowers and shrubs on it anyway!

I absolutely love a casual cottage type lawn filled with plants.

Well, I planted all the herbs I got today except for one of the two pots of basil. I could have sworn I got Rosemary but well I didn't....After I made the tags and went to go stick it in the ground I then realized I didn't even have the plant yet. LOL I think this spring fever is affecting my brain.

So, now my herb garden is itty bitty but it will be fun to watch it grow. I've still got other pots to plant yet but waiting for that nursery to stock up on their herbs.

When everyone's garden get's to blooming don't forget to post their pics!
