Gardener's Folly

I am officially done planting things for this year! I do not have the greenest thumb so me planting anything is feat itself but since purchasing our own home and now since we have added on we need to take pride in home ownership somehow in my mind this translates into landscaping. Now please take note neither Hubby or my families are that gardening oriented so when I mentioned last year lets landscape in front of the new front door the look I received was not the best but we muddled through the experience and this year the perennials that I planted actually returned bigger and better. I was impressed. Every morning I look out my bedroom window and marvel that something I planted actually did what it was supposed to . So with a little experience I decided to plant another bed along the deck this year and it does look nice so I added just one more by the steps as you come up to the front door. There are many more possibilities down the road but for now I will continue to water and take pride that maybe I will be the one in the family who will turn a new leaf over and become a novice gardener. Hmmm dont hold your breath!
