we had some gardeners come out to do some work in our yard today. it does not have access to the back, so we hired some guys to come and move a lot of dirt and rocks to make a pathway to the back.
well, it made me feel guilty, 'cause here is what my herb garden looks like these days! if you click on the photo, it will get bigger, and close-up you can see how scary, out-of-control the weeds really are!
some of the flowers are blooming and looking so pretty. i love these blue violets! i had my daughter time me, and only let me be out pulling weeds for a half an hour...i usually only stop when i hurt too badly to go on!
i made a tiny dent in the wilderness, and got a couple more herbs planted. here are my son's boots that he gave to me before he got deployed to iraq...he laughed when saw i planted flowers in them!
i love the bleeding heart...so pretty!

marilyn ~ the funny thing about the violets, when i lived in california, i planted violets and it always got too hot, and they always died...here they just GROW! and my neighbor across the street thinks it is a kick that i love them, and keep them in the yard...she is constantly ripping them out!
catalyst ~ i guess everyone loves them...they are beautiful! thanks for your visit! your blog was delicious!
I wish I could find a perfume in that scent.
I had a piece of vintage fabric with Lily of the valley and roses.
It sold for some crazy amount of money within 24 hrs of listing it.
I was sad to see it go.
Oh weeds! I have been at it for a month!! they grow back faster than I can get all done!!! The boots are so great!! I do that too I plant in every thing I have chickens & hens in a pair of hubbys loafers he hated!!
