Your pics are sublime. I got the creeper only it creeps on wood and vines under the deck and has rotted many boards. VERY invasive, but I can't help myself I love it's wanderin' beauty and red fire in autumn. I need stones for it to be happy and polite like yours.

I just adore your pictures!!! Beautiful!!
My yarrow is up..hooray. It grows in a little patch by the hen house and thrives there...one of the first things to appear in spring.
The hosta leaf in your picture is so pretty...I never have had luck with them..I think I will try again this year. Cuz you never know!!!
I do know how to grow me some dandelions...I pick them to share with Mona right now..they are all over the yard..loving it! No sign of violets yet darn it!!

reading last night a botanical history book written in 1887 regarding woodbine, isn't it the same as creeper? anywho the timucuan indians here used it roots for a health tonic. do you wildcraft with creeper?
