NONONONO not me. I have plants waving at you, grabbing at you, attacking you! They say 'Its a (insert name here) garden. Wherever I move. A tiny lot turns into a Jungle of veggies, vines and flowers. No strait lines for me, no strait paths, no neat veggie plots. No pestecides, no herbicides. No plans, No maps. It may take a while for me to find what I like, moce things around, whatever. Its unique. And because its unique, I'ts interesting. Neighbors love it. Its always new. Keep it up.<BR/><BR/><BR/>I say we start a revolution.....<BR/><BR/>Down with the rows! Down with perfection!Nickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00001250231781402073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34753235.post-1161606160253361362006-10-23T08:22:00.000-04:002006-10-23T08:22:00.000-04:00Annie, I'd never heard of that plant before so had...Annie, <BR/>I'd never heard of that plant before so had to 'google' it. Amazing! Thanks! I can't grow it, but at least I can look ;) Oh, and say, "Mother Nature puts those colors together on purpose, so there!" lol.<BR/><BR/>Carol,<BR/>A crayon garden, perfect! Maybe we'll be 'The Crayon Garden' idea pioneers!<BR/><BR/>Petunia,<BR/>You're exactly right! Though I wish they would stay longer. I had a volunteer sunflower in my path this year, and it ended up a bit stunted (to say the least) but amazingly, everyone DID walk around it.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17527514833267869251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34753235.post-1161574017872145922006-10-22T23:26:00.000-04:002006-10-22T23:26:00.000-04:00Skip the "shoulds (should nots)" I say!

Before long they'll be gone, so let them grow as they will. I take a happy (go lucky) garden over an organized one any day.

I'm not sure if you see it in NY but down in TX we grow a plant with small, lovely red & purple blooms called Bat-faced Cuphea. I love this look, but have my own cranky quirks about hot pink! <BR/><BR/>Annie at the Transplantable RoseAnnie in Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.com
