I loved seeing that house in the background of your first picture. You need to post a picture of YOUR house so we can see the fabulous east coast architecture. <br><br>I LOVE that your vines on your porch will be red, white and blue!!! You are so clever. <br><br>That is a fantastic bush. I remember having a lilac bush like that when I was a little girl. I lost many a doll to that bush. It was so fun to play in there and fall asleep to the scent of lilacs. I didn't remember that until I saw your picture! Thank you for this post and the memory jog. Your children are going to have some wonderful memories.Blackeyedsuenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494327239427175210.post-64675732400383801182006-05-01T21:31:00.000-07:002006-05-01T21:31:00.000-07:00Way, way cool garden!

I need your raspberries to go in my Blushing Peach jam I'm going to make from my peach tree this year! I made some two years ago, and we've been dying for more since last year was a bad year for peaches. Hmmmmmmmm, too bad we don't live a skosh closer!

Your yard is so pretty and green already. I loved THE bush. The girls must LOVE playing in there! I loved the picture of Marv mowing the lawn...what a fun angle.

Our soil is incredibly rocky, so I only wanted to pick axe (literally) a limited amount of space. I also love having dirt so fluffy I can plunge a fist in it and the raised garden lets me do that.<br><br>Rachelle- plants that actually like cooler weather appreciate the shade when it gets hot. Lettuce, spinach, beets, scallions, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, radishes and peas can all tolerate some shade. They are all somewhat cold tolerant, too, so you don't have to wait till the frost free date to plant. Leaf lettuce, spinach, radishes and beets are the easiest to start with. Good luck!Nettiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07944075197437870258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494327239427175210.post-75119419821408352192006-05-02T16:04:00.000-07:002006-05-02T16:04:00.000-07:00Hey!
