Her are some flower pics for you to look at. they are from 2 yrs ago. Also green trees.

mosquito plants are a type of geranium.

One weekend we went to see the Disney movie " Old Yeller" in 1957.  It was about a family ,a youg boy and an old stray dog. Sunday afternoon showings had very long lines. We were lucky was able to get into 1st show. In the end Old Yeller died protecting the boys from a wild animal.  When we came out of the movies my Aunt,Uncle and cousins were waiting in line to see the second show. My younger brother told them there was no sense in going in because Ol Yeller was dead.

that cracked me up!!!!! :ty:

The sun is shining ... heading to DuBois now .. will enjoy the sunshine in the car.

the WPA built the wall in front of my house

 

Lol, I know!

I have to say that the beautiful sunshine today felt so darned good!

sure did!!! I pulled the blinds up and let the sunshine in!!!

We were told last fall that they were going to make a glass lookout on the edge of the bridge. Can't wait to see it. Might have to crawl on my hands and knee's out in it though .... think that would make my heart race seeing what is below me!!!

 

sorry for your loss bon

thanks, I try not to think about it. thinking more about my brother today for some reason :-/

this is the only cactus I can keep alive.

 

..."My Mom's funeral (6 yrs ago today)"...never realized it was today until I went to look it up in the Bible. :B

My mom died 2 yrs ago today. You were one of the first people to know besides family.

oh trust me it got good and dry between waterings ... lol. i would put it out in the shade in the summer, and as soon as I brought it in, in early fall, it would start blooming and would be done by the time Christmas got here.

wow!! thats an old plant. I killed the one my grandmother gave me. Just not good with house plants  :-/

Ingrams house? Don't know who built it. I will ask Mike the next time I see him. Unless someone on here knows already.

DuBois Storage & Casting Co.

lol, that loks like the plant that is growing in our driveway. I wouldn't let hubby kill it. I want to see how big it gets.

Dept of Ag dropped lots of flies earlier this spring/summer to help eat the gypsy moth larva I think  ot at least one of those other bugs.  Further north you og  the worse they get or got

you got that right!!! They are terrible up north.

I always planted in October.

Oh my gosh, that's the one that I've been trying to thing of, thanks Bon!

I'm gonna get me some of those, just beautiful!

 

Question, are they perennial, a friend told me that they're annuals.

 

 

they reseed themselves, read that they ae a bi-annial. i'm sure I wil find some hubbby didn't cut down ... lol.

I don't do anything to my salvia, and it's right out in the open in my garden. I noticed nothing bothers it, but I don't even like to mess with it cause they smell like cat pi$$. :shok:

Looking at pics on the web, I think it is a 3-lobed rudbeckia.   Hubby just told me he cut down all the plants up back, sorry.

I got a black eyed susan plant that comes back every year at the Valley Rainbow. It has many flowers on it, more of a bush type plant, self seeds. This year it was too wet and they didn't get any flowers. I will have to check up back in the weeds. The birds always deposit some seeds back there and we always find them growing in weird places. If I do find any I will send you some seeds.

depends, some people have luck with them coming back others don't. depends on where you plant them also. To me they are a disposable plant, so I consider them an annual.

I buy any gardening book that has to do with PA. I also buy the farmers Almanac every year and know whether it's a good year to plant things or not. It nailed it this year ... rain, rain, rain. So I didn't plant a garden or any flowers at all. Didn't even buy a hanging basket. I also have books on bulbs, perrenials, annuals, tree's, shrubs, and houseplants including bonsai tree's. You can never have too many books!!! At least thats what I tell the hubby
