I see endless possibilities with that lot! Oh my that will be beautiful as a garden with paths curving around and little niches to put interesting artistic focal points. What a nice asset to have, Cat.

@Cat,
What a great space to build a garden....I am green with envy...see Green Grin!

@Annasartin, thank you, a little too crowded but I can't seem to let go of them and like strays, I just can't say no to a new one... *Blush* This might be the year to do some house cleaning..I mean garden-cleaning... Oh heck, I mean both!! Rolling on the floor laughing

Lisa, I need to do both too. My french door still has a handprint on it from when the grandsons were here, but every time I look at that handprint it makes me smile. And my husband said he noticed a lot of weeds taking hold, but he doesn't dare spray anything for fear of killing one of my flowers.

=@blue23rose I do the same thing. My (almost 2) Grand Daughter's hand print in chalk (her side walk calk she loves) on the fridge. Every time I go to wipe it off, I can't wipe away that tiny little hand print. It makes me smile. Smiling

It is lime peel and it is gorgeous!!! Always taller than 38" for me as you can see in the picture. It towers above those around it by at least a foot!!

I agree It is Gorgeous!! I think I have looked at in in the data base before. That name seems familiar.

I added these yesterday. I am waiting on 1 more to end on LA and then that is it until fall... =)

Hahaha I just received my second set of markers in the last month. Blinking

In my defense, part of that is because I wanted to replace ones that I had with the more heavy duty ones from Kincaid and the price drops quite a bit when you order more. The rest......are because the first set wasn't enough for what I ordered over the winter...

I ended up buying 2 sets of the Kincaid's also. I love them and I think I will eventually, little by little, replace all of my markers with Kincaid's.

Has anyone ever used this type of markers? http://www.idealgardenmarkers.... I was thinking about them. I went and checked out the Kincaid. They are pretty nice.

I have used both black and a red which I don't see listed there. The black are very good, don't fade but the red faded. I really need to get a few. I had one this spring and somehow I lost it.
