I want a big garden!

[lilywhite]

I want a big garden in front of my house, then I can tell the four seasons directly from there...

 

[jon_forward]

what part of the country do you call home and do you have a green thumb?

 

[lilywhite]

My home, well, it's near the sea. It's a shame that I am a green hand instead a green thumb

Is that the sort of garden you are aiming for? I wish I had that much space

Sounds like my neighborhood A few years ago this psycho lady was lifting everyones potted plants, lawn ornaments, chairs (my outdoor candle holders) and whatever she could get her hands on. She was finally caught, then the police were knocking on doors asking people to come and see if they had anything in the trunk of their cruiser.

My elderly neighbors actually have a black lawn jockey. Someone smashed it's head off years ago, but they re-attached it somehow, and there is still stands today. It's the sorriest thing you've ever seen.

That reminds me, someone stole a bunch of their lawn ornaments in the fall. First it was the sexy pig, then a gnoms or two, then to add one final insult, they stole the singing elf. No takers for the jokey though, probably because it's tied to the porch

 

[Johnney]

it worked til they got about 4 foot tall and we had to take them down...lol

I'm sorry, but gardens belong in the back of your house; primary for the purposes of reasonable privacy and security from nature.

Most houses have their fronts facing the opposite direction of the region's traditional winds. Any garden you have in the front must be of minimal size. However, there are many species of plants you can use to tell if the seasons have changed.

Why not just buy a calender, it's much less work.
