It is awful. I guess fortunately, the ivy keeps out the other weeds???<br />Heidi - freakin ungrateful plants.<br />Kimberly - I am hoping he gets his act together by next year. He really is more pathetic looking than this photo lets on.<br />Compost - why thanks! It sure made the holding pen area look a lot better. Though now there is no room to hold any plants in the holding pen. <br />Edith Hope - Yeah I figure I better go ahead and confess stuff... it might get hard to hide after awhile. <br />CVF- I have promised myself this since the beginning and I don't listen to me. It wasn't a big deal when the weather was more mild... now, its becoming a waste of money!!!<br />IG- I agree..there is always next year. And I have the Oct-Dec season which will be easier to be slack during!<br />Zoe - Let me know how that goes!Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524574998937986323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450926564221225084.post-30288769539182504002010-08-17T11:00:20.141-04:002010-08-17T11:00:20.141-04:00Well, laziness pays, as I think your picture #1 is...Well, laziness pays, as I think your picture #1 is quite lovely! I like this idea, and so I shall celebrate it today by doing absolutely nothing, and see if anything nice comes of it.

It was an in joke; the prayer he referred to was: "Oh laziness, did I ever offend thee?"<br /><br />Let the summer ride, put it down as an experiment.

I have this nasty habit of being wowed by a plant in a garden center, and buying it before I really think about where it's going to live. A few have died waiting for a permanent spot in the garden. I'm trying to be better about it, but as I type this I have no less than half a dozen 'homeless' plants sitting on my front porch!Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450926564221225084.post-6255310374656531262010-08-16T07:41:27.309-04:002010-08-16T07:41:27.309-04:00Dear Jess, How brave of you to confess your sins s...Dear Jess, How brave of you to confess your sins so publicly. I know that I should keep very silent on the countless examples I could cite of my own negligence.

The third shot can be see all over Charleston right now, so don't beat yourself up over that one, but now that it is photographed and posted, get rid of it and put a container with succulents in its place.

It's been entirely too hot this summer for any container plant to tolerate, so don't blame yourself. As far as the hydrangea, he should learn to suck up his life circumstances and make the best out of it, just like everyone else. You don't owe him anything...you gave him a wonderful place in your beautiful garden...now it's his turn to suck it up and get with the program!! I'm on your side, girlfriend. Don't let these plants take over...you're doing fine! :)Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18123627573356760362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450926564221225084.post-86240937071688144402010-08-14T19:12:25.453-04:002010-08-14T19:12:25.453-04:00I hope that my plants don't get to hear that t...I hope that my plants don't get to hear that they've got the option of calling social services...I could be in real trouble here!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450926564221225084.post-62154072711761163492010-08-14T17:01:58.102-04:002010-08-14T17:01:58.102-04:00Ha!
