[QUOTE="donna723, post: 47094, member: 1883"] Your little "garden nook" sounds wonderful! My yard takes up 2/3rds of a city block and I've spent the last four summers trying to keep up with it all with a little push mower! I would spend my entire weekend just mowing, then doing it all over again the next weekend! Finally, this year, I just couldn't keep my mower running and the grass was really getting out of hand, so I got a lawn service guy to do it, and it looks wonderful! It's pricey and I really can't afford it, but he does a great job of it and with his big commercial mower he can do in a half hour what it took me all weekend to do - and he [i]weedeats[/i], the part of it that I kept "forgetting" to do, so it looks a lot better! And anyway, I'm getting too darned old to be pushing a lawn mower around in 90+ degree heat! So now that I don't have the "drudgery" part of it to worry about anymore, I'm really enjoying working on my flower beds and containers! I have Petunias dangling from just about everything! And I'm actually going to go out later and plant all those gladiola bulbs I bought a month ago! On second thought, maybe I'll do it tomorrow.... [img]:cool:[/img] [/QUOTE]
