There is only one variety that is suitable for our zone, and even that one is hit or miss. I too just got my daffodils in the ground.

There are a few rose bushes and some Iris. I hurriedly planted some daffodils in the midst of unpacking, but hope to make some real progress next Spring. Your gardens are such an inspiration. <br /><br />Michelle <br />https://mybijoulifeonline.com Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-33241705512553579502021-11-05T06:23:50.435-05:002021-11-05T06:23:50.435-05:00My garden has bowed to the will of the frost too. ...My garden has bowed to the will of the frost too.

As far as herbs, yes, I wonder if they are worth the hassle too, but I can't stand paying so much for them at the grocery store either. I wish I could let Jackson out in the rest of the garden with me, but there are so many predators where I live.Amy Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11878073765579182362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-6845082510979936122021-11-01T15:32:31.181-05:002021-11-01T15:32:31.181-05:00Your garden looks so lovely - it's a shame you...Your garden looks so lovely - it's a shame you had frost and the pretty flowers were killed off but it will look great when spring rolls around! We really don't have any luck with veggie growing - this year I tried moving the planter around a bit to see if it was getting too much or not enough sun but everything still died off. The flowers we planted seemed to be doing better but even though it's spring here no actual flowers yet - just lots of greenery (where the veggies all went brown and died, ha!)<br /><br />Hope that your week is off to a good start :)<br /><br /><a href="https://awayfromtheblue.blogspot.com.au" rel="nofollow">Away From The Blue</a> Micahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06858487062882928298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-465553856047864432021-11-01T13:38:44.567-05:002021-11-01T13:38:44.567-05:00You are quite the talented gardener.

I think I'd want to sit there with a book whenever the weather allows!<br />Really love how your purple sedum pairs with the marigolds, hopefully I remember next year to plant some together, they look so pretty especially for the fall season!<br />Your vegetable garden paid off once again with all the goodies you harvested! I only have a few herbs in my garden, I've been freezing some of them. I've given mostly up on drying them, it really is such a hassle!<br /> <br />Love seeing how much Jackson enjoys the screened in porch and garden. My orange tabby loves to follow me around the garden too whenever I'm out there. He was very curious of what I was doing the other day when I planted some spring bulbs :-)Ellibellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18365728362619705749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-42682244672450893262021-11-01T08:17:32.215-05:002021-11-01T08:17:32.215-05:00Well, you live in a much warmer area than we do. ...Well, you live in a much warmer area than we do.
