Not sure what all I will be able to save, but with hope some of the nice trees will still be there. <br /><br />Hi Colleen, I will be leaving gorgeous gardens... and going to some new ones. <br /><br />Hi Cameron, This will be an exciting time for sure. My Blue Satin is a bit smaller -- nibbled by the bunnies. <br /><br />Hi Frances, I have lots of ideas about the new garden and know what I want inside... and will probably change my mind six more times. ;-)<br /><br />Hi Kathleen, The lobelia is an easy plant.

Making the trip again tomorrow to take the rest of the 'junk' to her.<br />Hi Anna, I can't believe how much our lot is overgrown, but the fire ants are something I REALLY am not looking forward to. ugh!<br /><br />Flyingstars- Hello and welcome! thanks for visiting and come back soon. Glad you like the photos.<br /><br />David, hi there, it is a very exciting process! I will not enjoy the trip down there each time! Will be seeing that bridge many more times. ;-)<br /><br />Hi Les, An empty lot to a gardener is lots of fun....will be a grand plan.<br /><br />NellJean, hi, thanks for visiting. I am happy with the reblooms! A very pleasant surprise.<br /><br />Hi Tina, Play your card right and I can try to get you some of this Great Blue Lobelia! ;-)<br /><br />Hi Ginger, it is a bit untended right now....and lots of weeds!<br /><br />Rose, nice to see you. Planning a new garden is fun, but hard--- keep it simple or have every plant I have looked at??? Oh the decisions!! I was surprised the Black and Blue took so long to bloom but glad it did!<br /><br />Hi Megan, These wild turkeys are thrilling to see. I hear we also have bald eagles...another thrill to see! In some respects it will be sad to leave this garden, but oh the plans we have.... whoa.<br /><br />KZK- hey,I know, we had them in Texas...rotten evil creatures!<br /><br />Hi Helen, aren't those turkeys fun? I think the pokeweed it very colorful. On our way home I saw a large plant with about 8 or more balckbirds in it....enjoying the berries.<br /><br />Hi Alan, Thanks! I was surprised how skittish the turkeys were...maybe when we live there and I can bring my camera on a walk I will get some better shots.
