It's nice you like gardens, aquariums... :)
My mother got a very nice garden (flowers, little trees, nice grass she takes care of a lot, and some vegatables :mrgreen: Few ones, sure).
It's beautiful.
My brother used to have an aquarium and it was a bit boring to take care of it. But the fishes were nice.
Mine has plenty of flowers and plenty of weeds that I should be picking right now. :whistle But this is more fun, though every day when I walk outside, I go into :shock at how well I can grow weeds.
Weeds, or native plants Gaffer <LOL> I'm about to do a native rock garden. Most of my plants right now are of the container variety. I too have killed many cacti!
I might actually get some tomatoes and bell peppers this year, I'm not good with veggies in containers!
My poor dear garden looks like "ยทยท$%&/ since I had the baby. I need days with more hours for all I have to do!!!!!!! Think I have the chance of a miracle here????

Well, I suppose they are native plants out in the fields and weeds when they grow up through my walkway and in front of my flowers :roll: . Actually, I don't mind the dandelions, clover, daisies or poppies; it's the noxious plants that need to be picked. The non-native Scotch Broom or some sort of plant with prickers that's not a cactus and grows all over the place.
I have some strawberries growing in a pot, but no vegetables this year. Good luck with your rock garden and your veggies. Most tomatoes are about impossible to grow here as we are too close to the Strait to get enough consistent sun.
I tell people my garden is a 'wildlife sanctury' . We've had so much rain here lately that I can't get out with the machete to cut it down and of course it grows like wildfire! No, it just needs a haircut really....I have always been a believer in the theory that weeds are only plants you don't want. I used to plant alot of flowers every year, but don't have the time or energy (or weather) anymore, so I'm letting the shrubs fill in the gaps. But there are some lovely flowering 'weeds' that creep in between and I love the effect.
Maybe we could have a Gardens thread in Small World........?
That would be fun. Pictures could even be posted so we can see some of the well tended gardens or in our case we could see who has the most beautiful weeds :mrgreen: .
'wildlife sanctury' hehehe Good one Stevie!!!!!
Maybe I should say the same about mine!!!!!
