I've always loved wildflowers. Dolly Parton's song called "Wildflowers", has a line that goes like this - ..WILD FLOWERS DON'T CARE WHERE THEY GROW... (I have a link to the song on this blog - so have a listen). I've always thought of myself as a wild flower; I'll put my roots anywhere. This blog is mostly about my "wild" garden, our pond, the birds and insects that visit, it`s about our animals, and our home projects.

Landscaping and Gardens
Well, I am very excited today because I came across an envelope full of photographs I had taken when we first bought our property. Many of them are before we began the landscaping and gardening. While we have already done some work, there is still so much much more to be done - probably another 2 years of work. That said, I now have an idea for a project - before and after photos. I will need to scan the old photos since they are from my old camera and not digital, but bit by bit I can put something together. I am so glad we are getting close to spring and I can soon start blogging about the garden. Already there are shoots poking up out of the ground, and I am getting excited. Chris has put the landscaping ties along the centre of the roundabout at the back.. it is in an octagon shape .. so we need to think of a lovely and practical tree to plant in the centre. I already plan to put rosemary and lavender around the edges.. it is just coming up with the right tree, deer-proof as well. Stay tuned.
