I may bah humbug Christmas, but your yard is amazing!
haha, all going good but that last one… no cold means no to a lot of plants (tulips, peonies, lilacs, most other bulbs), and extremely hot summers 🙂
Very good, the twelve months of summer sounds like a great present.
Very cute and creative. I tried to sing along.
WOW! What a lady your “true love” is, whacha giving her?
Hi John, very creative 12 days of gardening song. Lovely flowers and beautiful picture. Have a nice day.
That is a shiz-ton of plants! Looks like you do a pretty good job at staying on top of it all.. and make time to write silly songs! haha. Jk. I enjoyed it.
