Hello Loon and Flower,
Well I always resisted planting daffs as they looked so pedestrian. But now in my older years i see the great value in the things that grow and multiply on their own. Things you don't have to lift or things that
don't bloom OUT.
I love daffs now. Did I have to get old to learn that lesson??
Probably.
Well glad to hear about your plans for the new year.
My big plan is to reduce my flower garden. I have been unable to keep it in a neat condition . It is getting away from me so it is time to rework it and make some BIG changes... More conifers and more berms
with shrubs and less flowers. It is that or take out the beds and grass over. UGH!
That seems to severe. i still have allot of pep. But 3/4 of an acre of grounds and working full time at my age has left my gardens in a mess.

Oh yeah and as you can see I also grow about 50 flats a year and I pot up 50 to 100 pots that I put all over my property! I cause my own gardening issues cause I just can't stop!!
I love plants. Have since i was a very young girl.

So that is my new plan. I will be drawing and make some site plans. Looking for stuff on sale next year!
What about the other Michigan gardeners?
