Oh sweet chemicals..

Here's the truth, I'm not an organic type a gal,  I have a fondness for certain chemicals;
Going into surgery, give me the drugs baby..
After surgery, every pain killer allowed, please.
In the morning caffeine
Although I do admire the young women who chose to go without epidurals during labor, that wasn't me.
And this brings us to gardening.

And weeds.

And how weeds don't care if the temperature drops into the 30's and 40's or if it snows.
They grow everywhere.

And when the sun finally comes out again we find things,
like this.




Which is why I love gardening chemicals.
Preen, my friend. I love you..


and you too.. Preen with fertilizer..

Fertilizing while preventing weeds! Genius, that's what it is!

Here's a spring mess holding hope for a beautiful summer garden.

Plants are tough amazing things.

These old steps need to come out because


of this rot and it's not going to be easy, it could be more than we can manage, truthfully 

The whole place in need of a good cleaning up and cutting back

A job for chain saw man. Yeah for chain saw man,, Love you too!

The dried up grasses were just waiting for him.
Speaking of 'him' this obelisk looks rather like a person doesn't it?  

I've always thought so..



Another very favorite gardening objects.. seriously this cart is one of the best
gardening gifts I've received

Also love this lethal stuff. What ever would I do without you my love?
And that's about it for gardening secrets from
