Growing plants here is a
challenge, but by trial and
error our landscaping is
coming together.
It is somewhat easier
when your husband is a Master
Gardener, too!

Dorothy and Dave's Garden |
|
Combined Efforts |
|
After our home was built
eight years ago, we
began landscaping, and
fortunately, we both
enjoy it. David has a
vegetable garden as well
as fruit trees and
pecans. I enjoy the
flowers – seeing what
grows from cuttings,
planting seeds, dividing
plants and sharing
them. One day David told
my mom, “Dorothy’s
plants never know where
they are going to sleep
the next night.” |
